In my AS year of media I learnt that research was a vital process when making a film. In my AS year, social media sites came in very handy for research such as getting feedback and I found myself relying on sites such as Twitter, Facebook and Youtube to get an audience's opinion.
In my AS year I also had to find sites that would help me present my research once I had conducted it. I got familiar with sites such as Prezi, Slideshare and Photobucket when showing my research to my teachers. These are all sites that I had never used before so it was useful to find out about new ways to present my work. I now feel confident when using these sites and will consider them when completing work for A2.
Although I feel my research in AS went fairly well, there are definitely a few ways I could improve. I remember in AS when I had to conduct feedback on our rough cut of our thriller we left it very close to the deadline to ask people on Facebook. We were lucky that we were able to get a few responses but we could've got more if we had asked questions earlier. I will try to rectify this in A2 by looking at any upcoming feedback tasks or tasks that involve contacting an audience as feedback isn't always immediate and sometimes you do have to wait a while to get a response.
