In this session we focused on two things. Firstly we analysed how effective researching from books was in comparison to researching from the Internet. We worked in our same group once more and we chose to research the history of the film industry. It was slightly harder than the last session, because there was the matter of tracking down the books we needed with the specific information we were looking for in them. Eventually we managed to gather quite a lot of information, but we had a feeling, as a group, that not all of the information was reverent to the task. Although the information we gathered from the books was more reliable in our opinion, we had to say that internet research was slightly more convenient.
In the second half of the session we looked at pre-production. I had already had a lecture on pre-production before this one, however I managed to collect a few notes that hadn’t been mentioned before. I understood that pre-production is possibly the most important part of creating a piece of digital media. We were then given the task to focus of pre-production and plan on creating our own piece of digital media. I decided to redesign an existing book cover, and found it quite difficult to draft out ideas, because there were so many specific points in the book that could be highlighted on the cover.
