At the beginning of this task, I was new to the different software's on the Apple Mac.
At first it was easy to get to know how to use as I realised all I had to do was play about with it until i learnt how to use it properly. At the same time looking at online tutorials helped me learn how to edit when my editor wasn't around.
When it came to camera work, I had knowledge from jobs I do outside of school so i was able to hold one, record, play and show others in my group how to use.
The only challenge I had was the storyboard, because I had never drawn up a story board before so it was a challenge but due to the research and planning I done about what storyboards should look like and how to present them, I was able to accomplish this task as I spent time outside of school learning more about storyboards.
The main thing that he me the most was the fact that I have to make time (a lot of time) to be able to learn about new technologies and to teach myself how to use them. At first I decided to just do this when I had lessons but then I realise that I was running out of time and I had to put extra time and effort into this, so I spent most of my time outside of college learning more about what I was doing so that when it came to completing this project, I would complete it with 100%.
It was also brought to my attention that people that blog could blog about ANYTHING or EVERYTHING. When I first started my blog, I realised that it would be a lot of hard work due to the fact then looking at other peoples blogs (professional/amateur) they put a lot of time and effort into it. Blogspot was a new website to me and exploring it and learning more about its features was quite exciting as each time I went on it I learnt something new each time.
The same with Slideshare, I knew about websites like this one but I never actually used it before. It was quite fascinating as it showed me a new way to present different types of media online and this also helped me present my blog in more ways than just the plain old typing. It also allowed my group to help share work more easier than all of us uploading it individually onto our blogs.
Overall, I learnt how to use new technologies at a fast pace and how to present work in different types of way.
