S e l f - E v a l u a t i o n

Aesthetics
Overall i got a level 3 which meant that my production was very good to look at. this could be due to the fact that it was very colourful and i used a lot of edits to try and make it look good.
Creativity
For this i got level 3 overall, which i was really happy at considering that i spent a long time creating this short clip. some feedback that i got showed that i could have used more resources however they thought it was quite creative.
Technology
I got a level 2 for this simply because i used microsoft publisher as my only resource to have got a higher level i could have explored differeent types of resources for example using people.
Understanding
Overall i got a level 2 for this because i didnt have as many facts in the production as i should have therefore this made my levell go lower. if was to do this again i would include a lot more facts about the internet and the benefits of it and the drawbacks.
Production Values
For this i got level 3 which meant that my peers thought the level on the production was quite good, this could be due to the fact that my music went with the production and also because it was quite creative.

I thought that this video was very good as it outlined good facts about the internet. Presentation wise this was very appealing however inserting a soundtrack wouldve made it much better.

Q u e s t i o n s

What is the difference between a internet user and television audience?

A Internet User Can Be Very Interactive With What They Are Doing On The Internet In Regards To Websites Where They Can Play Games, Socialising Websites Such As Facebook Etc Whereas An Television Audience Is To Some Extent Disadvantaged To This Although You Can Interact With Things On Certain Occasions. It Can Be Said That Those Who Are InterNet Users Tend To Spend More Time On The Internet Rather Then Watching News Etc Which Is SOmething Negative, This Can Be Due To The Fact That The Internet Is Being Exploited Due To What People Can Now Access And How It Has Evolved Dramtically Over The Years ...

Digital Britain: Analogue radio switch-off set for 2015

  • FM spectrum will be filled by a new tier of ultra-local radio consisting of small local commercial and community stations. Radio stations currently broadcasting on medium wave will upgrade to DAB (digital audience broadcasting).
  • DAB must reach 90% of all the population and all major roads before the upgrade timetable can begin.
  • The report says that for the DAB transmitter to work, it will need a large amount of money from other commercial opperators, apart from the BBC.
  • Commercial radio operators have so far been unable to make niche digital services pay.

Digital Britain: Landline users to pay £6 tax to fund broadband

  • Fixed-line telephone users will pay £6 a year to fund the rollout of superfast broadband across the country.
  • A 50p-a-month levy on every copper telephone line will help pay for next-generation broadband for 90% of the population.
  • The government wants everyone to be able to receive broadband of at least 2Mbps by 2012 as it puts more public services online.
  • The government has said they will use part of the BBC fee to help fund the ITV regional news service.
  • The more people do illegal filesharing it will eventually slow down their broadband connection.

Digital Britain: ISPs will have to cut filesharing by 70% under new proposals

  • British ISPs will be required to cut illegal filesharing on their networks by 70% within a year under new powers set to be given to the communications regulator Ofcom.
  • Persistant file infringers will see their details passed onto right holders, where they can then sue them in court. The can also face bans.
  • Artists, musicians and record labels, said that it thinks the proposals will not succeed in achieving such a cut.
  • If there is not a decrease of up to 70% after the first year, the government will use it's powers to introduce further measures, eg cutting down internet connection to offenders.
  • It may also take a very long time, as the government is only consulting, and the legislation will enact months after this.
