Task 4: e-pub, commentary and poster
self-reflection and evaluation:
Part
One: Discuss your feelings about the e-pub, poster and commentary task:
1. Are you satisfied with the
final result?
I am satisfied with the final
result of my iBook although I probably should have added more content to it.
2. Did the e-pub require more/less
time than you originally thought?
It did require more time than I
had originally thought.
3. Would like to change any aspects
of your final project (layout, links, images, video and audio content, colour
scheme etc.)?
I would like to change my
colour scheme and images as I feel like I could have been a bit more creative
with the background images.
4.
If you
could start the project again what would you do differently?
I would
probably choose a different layout/template for my iBook because I don’t think
it suited my project as well as it could have.
Part Two: Respond to each of the
following dot points (using complete sentences or paragraphs). You should
include as much detail as possible in your responses.
1. Discuss whether your e-pub and
poster have turned out the way you pictured them?
My poster
did turn out the way I pictured it, but my iBook wasn’t as candy land themed as
I wanted it to be.
2. Explain whether your e-pub and
poster clearly depicts the style of your animation and describe some specific design
principles that you have used to achieve this;
I think
my poster and iBook definitely depicts the style of my animation. I decided to
use lollipops and mirrors in my iBook because they are the main symbols
throughout my animation.
Describe any problems or
technical difficulties you encountered while creating your director
commentaries in Garage Band. These may include; sound or video issues, corrupt
or missing files, difficulty using the iBook’s Author or Garage Band software,
problems importing/exporting files, etc.;
I had a
bit of trouble using garage band at the beginning as I wasn’t very familiar
with the app and I hadn’t used it that often so I didn’t know how to do some
things. I also struggled with exporting my audio as it wouldn’t export onto my
laptop from my computer at home.
4. Did you have all of the
necessary resources to complete your e-pub and poster or did you have to create
new materials?
I did
have to create new materials such as the lollipop image I used in my iBook and
I also had to add more to my title page using Photoshop.
5. List the steps you used to plan
and develop your project;
First I
choose the template I wanted my iBook to be and choose the
questions/information I wanted to be in my iBook and in my audio.
I then
used Photoshop to develop and create my title page and wrote down the overview
for each scene.
I then
answered some question for my film evaluation and began to decorate my iBook
more. I changed backgrounds, fonts and added my media/videos into it.
6. Did you use content-lists, flowcharts
or other documents during the planning process;
I used a
document that kept all my ideas and questions that I was going to answer in my
iBook.
7. Clarify any time-management
issues you encountered during the creative process and describe the steps you took
to improve in this area
I had a
few time management issues whilst creating my title page for my iBook so I
ended up borrowing a laptop overnight so I could finish it in Photoshop.
8. Discuss whether you undertook
adequate and detailed reflection throughout your project. i.e. Have you provided
enough evidence to support your work? (Look back at your blogs and think about
whether it looks like a whole terms worth of work);
I haven’t
done much reflection work and I could have done more for this term.
