I decided to put my creative critical reflection question responses in a Prezi. This was my first time using a Prezi and I believe it was a great learning opportunity and I think I can use this technique in the future.

Blog Entry #30 Creative Critical Reflection Question 4 DRAFT
Creative Critical Reflection Question 4
-How did you integrate technologies-software, hardware, and online- in this project?
-How did you integrate technologies-software, hardware, and online- in this project?
Throughout our films production there were many ways that my
group integrated technologies to create the final product. Our group also used
many different software's, websites and programs to help mold our film.
Throughout the project each member of the group kept a Blog (Google Blogger) to
help with organization and to show our groups progress in creating the film.
The Blog was a very helpful tool as we can write ideas and show our films
progress which helped other group members if they did not understand something
or missed a day. As the film editor, I
had to learn to overcome. By sitting down and researching all different types
of software's and combining their uses to create a film. This was honestly one
of the hardest parts in creating the film as learning proper uses of this
software to create the finished project. All in all the group my group
integrated many different technologies to create this project.

Creative Critical Reflection Question 3
-How did your production skills develop throughout this project?
When our group decided to do a film project we thought that
it would be quite challenging since not one member of the group had any
practice with creating films. When we were given jobs and roles in the
production of the film, my job was the film editor. This was something I have
never done in my life. I did lots of research on different types of film editing
software and found that windows movie maker was the easiest to use. It took
many days of practice to understand how movie maker works but once I understood
the basics everything else was easy. Adding clips, trimming and deleting parts
of the scene were all challenges that I faced in the production of this film.
But as an overall question, my production skills have gotten a lot better as
time went on in creating the finished product. My group was satisfied with my
material and this really boosted my confidence for future productions.

Blog Entry #28 Creative Critical Reflection Question 2 DRAFT
Creative Critical Reflection Question 2
-How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?
-How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?
In the film industry there are many ways that films engage
with the target audience. Our films target audience is young adults that run
into social and economic problems. This film really can compare to the real
world young adults that need help because of financial troubles. Our product
shows Zack, a hopeless young adult living day to day with one job. His normal
life turns upside down when he receives a call from his boss that he is fired.
This to many young adults can be a tragedy, stressful and the feeling that life
has deceived them. But when all faith was lost Zack receives a text from his
best friend Josh that said "1 million dollar scratch offs sold at Publix
for 1 dollar!". Zack feels like this can be a life changing opportunity
that he has to take. Without hesitation, he goes out to get it, and won! Our
films plot can really relate to a large percentage of young adults in our
country with daily problems and struggles. If you have good friends they can
sometimes change your life.
There are many different ways that films can be distributed
in the film industry. As a group we decided that our film will be distributed
to our community. The way we will distribute information about our film is that
we will hand out flyers at local high schools (with approval), hang up flyers
in stores all around town (With approval) and stand downtown handing out flyers
to the locals as well as the snowbirds to get our product name out there and
get people talking about it. We would also get in contact with our local news
station (CNN and SNN News 6) to talk to them and ask them if we would be able
to advertise and talk about our film on the news (to get our product seen by
other social groups other than our targeted audience(Adults, Elders, etc.)).
These are just a few ideas that our group decided to distribute our film
product to our target audience as well as other social groups as a real media
text.
