Progress review blog
How has my blogging work developed?
My blogging work has developed immensely when looking back at AS to the beginning of A2 and now.
- Most of my blog posts are full of information.
- I try not leave anything out.
- I don't just use the blogging checklist, anything I find relevant to what I am doing, I post.
- I also take teacher feedback on how to improve my blog seriously.
- I try not repeat technology.
How successfully does my blog detail the research, planning and construction stages of my music video?
I feel that I have done plenty of blogging on research and planning especially. My research, planning, construction and any changes to final edits are all relevant and all make up the stages to the final video.
For instance my research on pop culture and how it is reflecting and expressing to society has definitely enabled me to use my knowledge of it and include it in Bad Idea. For e.g. Rihanna showing a lot of flesh in most of her music videos in Bad Idea Romy wears a crop top which even though it doesn't show more than just her belly but that is an example of how I have incorporated this concept in my video.
I also wanted to ensure that the planning and construction which I have successfully done associated with Romy's image and the visual style of Bad Idea. For e.g. my costume research and planning went well with the pop music genre as well as appealing to the audience. I am aware that image is a key paradigm for music genre. Therefore my research, planning and construction stages met up the high standards of my music video because I primarily focused on the audience.
How happy am I with my individual blogging?
I honestly feel that my individual blog posts are plentiful and because I have not only used the blogging checklist as a guide but I also did some of my own research and actually went out and did what I had to do for instance shopping, talking to the HMV manager, costume research etc. I realise how important it is to keep track on everything I am doing for instance the media and singers, music videos because every little thing in the media I can some how incorporate in my Bad Idea's construction in order for it to be a success.
I have done the most blogging in my group so far even though I am aware quality is more than quantity I believe the quality is also up to high standards. I have searched and searched for creative technologies to present my work and have found some, in fact this software is one of them!
This year I have come across to different technology to present my work which i hadn't used in AS. These technologies creatively present my work, e.g. Wevideo, Photostage, Goanimate, Powerpoint video, ZohoShow, OneNote, Magisto, ShotClip, GoogleDocs, Slidely, Slid.es.

I think that my teacher feedback has definitely outlined my blog posts. I am very happy with the amount and work I have done. I also believe that the mark I was given is fair.
Count up of individual blog posts

I have 74 individual blog posts so far. I think that I have done a sufficient amount.
