In looking back through my AS media blog I have noticed many errors, firstly I didn't do enough research and planning. Research and planning is essential to having a successful media blog as you discover the typical conventions that are needed to making a good final piece. Also planning is key for the whole running of the year as there are many deadlines which need to be kept to and it would have been far better if we would have stuck to our schedule.
Another error I made was making my blog using Wix, this was because it was difficult to use and it overcomplicated everything I done. Just posting a simple piece of text took four times longer than it would on blogger because you then have to change the colour to fit with the theme background then there were effects on top of that. So much time went into making the page look good that I didn't do as much important work. It wasted a lot of valuable time.
The thing I feel I done well was using a wide variety of ways to present my work. We made videos about the locations, we used excel for our schedule, pictures and screenshots for similar products and also character profiles which made my blog more exciting.
Three things I am going to do differently this year:
- I am going to be more organised with my work, ensuring I have quality sufficient research and planning.
- I am going to get myself organised and ensure I get all the work done.
- I am going to spread the work load throughout the year so I don't have to rush towards the end.
