Week 14

Digital Communications

This week in Digicomms there was just a seminar and no lecture. During the seminar we continued with the blog task where we were introduced into “Writing activities in a range of media" where we able to create our own headlines and reviews on certain videos and newspaper articles. I enjoyed writing article headlines as it enabled me to be creative and find words which summed up the article. The reviewing of the video i enjoyed in parts but i found it to be abit repetitive in places , but overal reviewing is something i enjoy as i spent some of my spare time looking at others reviews of music.

Data Technology

In Data Technology i attended the breif on our next portfolio. we recieved everything we needed in a good amount of detail and i felt confident when looking at the information given. I quickly began to catch up on the work booklets using xampp which made this particular seminar one of the more productive seminar I've had in recent times.

Media Making


Again in Media Making we Continued with Photography as the lecture consisted of looking at the various techniques when taking photographs and also the numerous settings available on a camera. The seminar concentrated more on portraits photographs and how to execute a good portrait photograph. We also used Photo-shop to edit the picture which will benefit us when using photo-shop in the future.

The Networked Society


In the lecture this week the topic was 'Digital Britain' and the progression and current issues surrounding it. The lecture opened my eyes as I'am part of this progression and any changes in Britain will consequently effect me so I took a strong interest in this particular topic. This is the area of Digital Media that I find most comfortable and wish to pursue it further.

Technology , Comms and Media


This week we were looking at the different of media and the audiences it attracts and also how it represent the information it is reporting on. This was a key lecture which aided me in my essay.
