In the production of my foundation portfolio I now find that I had limited knowledge in terms of how to use media technology both hardware and software. For example I didn't know how to use Photoshop properly and struggled with following the conventions of a basic music magazine and used basic camera angles which made the pictures I took look blurry. I didn't have much experience with using proper cameras and iMac's. However, in my advanced portfolio pre production I gained more knowledge about a variety of software programmes I can used to help me edit my product and how to represent it on my blog. These software programmes include; Final cut, Picmonkey and YouTube. I have struggled to get use to final cut and the different tools to help edit the music video however I quickly learnt how to use it correctly even though it took me 3 hours to edit and make my music video in total. When it came to making my ancillary texts however, I needed a bit of help due to the fact I still can't use an iMac very well therefore it took a bit more time to make these products, also waiting for my video to upload onto YouTube took a long while so I spend a long time waiting for it to finish but for this happen I accidently forget to remove the SD card before I started doing my editing and once I had finished and removed the card, the files were lost so I had to use a card reader to find the files again and wait for it to re-upload to YouTube. In the foundation portfolio preproduction I had to change my ideas of the layout of my music magazine because I didn't conform to the conventions of a folk genre music magazine. I was unconfident with using Photoshop therefore all my original mock ups were messy with badly cropped pictures and with random structure to them,
