1.    How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?

Our product shows the daily activities of different groups of people. Showing a point of view from students to active people and people just searching for some entertainment. It represents people from all different social groups and how they find the product helpful.

 2.) How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?

Our product engages with the audience by stating things people will normally do on an average day. This shows how multiple of the apple products can be used consistently by different groups of people. No matter what their average day looks like at least one of the products can be used to help or entertain in a way.

3.) How did your production skills develop throughout this project?

Overall, starting my project I felt as if I had somewhat of an experience from things I have done in the past. A few years ago, I worked on set of a commercial. I picked up somethings about camera angles. Actually, shooting the commercial was a little harder then I expected. Shooting on a cellphone, while trying to get certain shots it was difficult. Editing was a fun experience since I am not use to doing it that often. I think that learning about film terms before hand gave me an upper hand when completing the commercial.

4.)     How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project?

In this project we used several different things that technology inquired. For example shooting the commercial we used our phones. We actually used tech for a lot. We used the app iMovie for editing. We used YouTube to get our music and the app documents to transfer it while using my headphones to make sure it was matching with the video. Using all these different pieces of technology made our one video come together.
