A1 skills development

this is my evaluation for my smile campaign advert and podcast.   initial research: For my initial research I started by researching into the company for example I found out where the charity operates who they help and how they help them. This meant that when I came to planning my product it would be suitable for the target audience. I made a rational for my target audience this helped me finetune my advert so that it was created more for them. to make this rational I made a survey for people to fill out on google forms. some of the questions on this questioner where: how old are you? , What is your gender identity? and How is your mental health? using these questions allowed me to make a advert that was targeted at mostly boys who are in the age category of 16-18. when I asked people what they would describe their mental health as 50% of people who took part in the survey described their mental health as okay this could suggest that it does need improvements. w...

  post production diary canon from MaddisonMeehan

 this is my podcast postproduction diary. this shows my process of editing of my podcast on logic pro. this is logic pro what i will be using to edit my podcast. as you can see there is two tracks of audio the first track (audio 1) is my audio and the track below it is my friends audio who recorded the podcast with me.  the first step i took to edit my podcast was turning on advanced tools this would allow me to use the snipping tool by pressing the command key on the keyboard. this would allow me to be able to cut out unwanted peaces of audio such as someone getting talked over or if you could hear the other person breathing or any other back ground noice while the other was talking this makes a better listening experience.  the previous two images show how i had selected a piece of audio where Teigan coughed while i was speaking i cut around the unwanted peace of audio and pressed the backspace key on my keyboard to get rid of the selected peace of audio. on the next im...

​In this piece of work I will be talking about the necessary steps that I took while in production of doing my podcast for the smile campaign. I took some images of the equipment used and I will explain how and why I used them.  This is the image of the microphones that we used to record the podcast. we had two microphones set up at opposite ends of the room to minimalist the echo and so that it didn't effect each other audio quality.  This an image of Logic Pro which I use to record and edit the podcast it has two tracks as was recording two peoples audios this makes it easier tor edit the audio.  i had scheduled a time and date that worked for both me and my friends who was going to record the podcast with me, this helped a lot as it meant we both individually had time to prepare for the podcast for example thinking of topics to talk about. making a schedule greatly helped me as it allowed the to get all of the resources prepared and ready before the podcast was recored...

 this is my final advert for the smile campaign that includes all of the improvements that I have changed from my 1st and second draft.  smile advert final draft

this is my first advert:  smile advert 1st draft   I asked my peers for some of feedback for this draft of my advert. one of the critiques I got for this draft for my advert was that I needed to add sound to my advert as this would make it easier to understand the concept of the advert to someone who has never seen the advert before and has no idea what the advert is about.  this is the second draft of my advert:  smile advert 2nd draft when I got feedback on this draft of my advert one of the compliments that I got was the music on my advert however it was pointed out that the music was copyrighted but I explained that I was allowed to use copyrighted music for educational purposes. one of the critiques that I received was there is some problems when the shot changes and it can make the advert look quite choppy and not professional this is one of the the things that I changed when I made the final draft of my advert.  

the image on the bottom is a jpeg of the mind logo above it is text that includes information about the mind company I had the text appear first while the clip was still playing I added a effected called film dissolve which made the text fade in. to add the text I clicked file, new, and then legacy title to add the text. I repeated the same effected with the image of the mind logo but I wanted the image to fade in at a later time than the text so I positioned the text to appear 0.1 seconds before the image starts to fade in. to be able to add music to my advert I first loaded up my desired song on YouTube and copied the the link. this will allow me to paste the song in the YouTube downloader   once the link is paced in the youtube downloader. i changed the downloader from video to audio from video as i only needed the audio element from the youtube video not the video for my advert. i downloaded the audio as a mp3. The best quality that was available to me was 160k. it was ess...
