From Foundation to Advanced Portfolio (FOUNDATION)
During my 2 years of completing my Media Studies course from the foundation portfolio to the advanced portfolio the use of Adobe programmes such as Audition, Photoshop and Indesign has been the foundation to creating both portfolios.
The use of digital technology had a major impact on both products I had created from scratch. The programmes that I had required to create my products were ones that I had not encountered before except for Adobe Photoshop which I had a vague idea of how to use it.
My foundation portfolio I had to create was a 5 minute radio jingle using Adobe Audition. This was the first time I heard and used Audition. The pre – liminary task had helped me familiarise myself with the functionality of the program I had to base my task on. Adobe Audition was the foundation for completing my task to a high standard. From week to week I had learnt more about Adobe Audition that I didn’t know about such as the unlimited undoing tool which helped me immeasurably as I had to correct my mistakes from time to time.
The age of new media such as the handheld recording devices helped me with my portfolio. I went on the streets looking for the local people’s opinion on the stabbings that occurred in Brent. The data that was stored on the convenient portable device had been lost, that was one disadvantage of the media device. The loss of data had forced me to repeat the task again on the device which was quite simple. After which I was able to easily transfer the recordings by a USB cable to the computer I was using.
Whilst the recordings weren’t as I had wanted so with Adobe Audition’s capability I had edited the recordings by panning, cutting and levelling out the volume. Many sounds I had used were downloaded from a free source (www.soundsnap.com) so again digital technology aided me with my task, as well as planning of the script was typed up on Microsoft Word. So overall the use of all these programs have helped me majorly as it was a cornerstone of my foundation portfolio without it none of this would have been possible.
