- Through the use of new young technologies people of today can successfully and creatively produce presentations of meda, trailers, films and other forms of media that is popular in our technological society today
- The competition has grown over the years to create something new and individual that will appeal to a great audience, and these technologies help construct that.
- What technology has developed into over the years of evolution in media allows all aspects to be sufficiently completed through the use of just a computer.
How the use new media technologies helped in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages of my project.

Music
For those who could not gain access to unsigned artists and make use of their music, the computer program Garage Band was used to create their own individual soundtrack via the use of prerecorded instruments. However through the use of the popular socialnetworking site Facebook, I gained permission to use an unsigned artists track, Kush Freestyle. The new, up and coming, young artist from the group "The Manor" gave me permission to download his song off of the internationally used music program iTunes. His song is originally found on Youtube, a video exchanging and presenting webpage allowing the public to download and watch videos.
Music
The technological company YouTube that has begun becoming popular for entertainment purposes where music videos and soundtracks can be found but also throughout the reasearch and planning stages became of great use for me in my project, to find influencial trailers and tutorials of how to use programmes located on the mac that I had difficulty with, for instance Photoshop.
Images and Information
CONVERGENCE
Images and information
Through the use of several search engines such as Google and Wikipedia, searching for images, previous film posters, magazine covers etc the conventions of media have endless facilities and websites on the internet that enable students and audiences to learn more about the industry.
Movie Aspects
By hand I produced severa film magazine cover ideas. I then scanned them into the computer, which enabled me to use iMovie and overlap several images together, to then produce the final image of my magazine cover. I then printed the collage of images out, and re-drew my final idea. Without the use of convergence in media, tasks such as this would take a lot longer and cost a sufficient amount more for companies.
I used Google to search for film magazine company websites, this made producing my own product a great deal easier then if I was to do this project several years ago. I was able to find the correct website to be fully available to what the expectations of The Little White Lies magazine company truly are when producing a magazine. I feel this helped me successfully produce an issue for my film The Imperfect, by the inspiration i drew from this.
Google, Wikepedia and Youtube all help in the research process as they allow a quick, clear and easy search of anything you want to find out. Simply type it in and the search engines come up with multiple results. This has helped guide users including myself become informed with the main aspects of a movie and a movie trailer, in such a way that wasn't possible several years ago, the time and effort spent now days saves a lot of money in the post production period, as well as through producing a product.
