P2:

Scope the personal media profile for an identified purpose

Based on the career path you have picked, you now need to collect examples of work you have  done over the last two years ( final products, useable drafts) in college/ in spare time/ job that is relevant to the chosen career.  YOU CAN PRESENT THIS AS A TABLE WITH THE FOLLOWING HEADINGS:

1.       Type  - explain what it is/ about 

2.       Digital  - what file types do you need to use to include it in a digital portfolio and why  -I WILL HELP WITH THIS!!

3.       Physical  - ways you could make present the example for a physical portfolio? (paper, photo, canvas, print, portfolio)

Digital - each example/ piece of work, the file types need to repurpose the work - change /adapt the file types so that work can be uploaded digitally online.

• Repurposing files makes them universal meaning they can be used on a range of devices.
• Easily accessed by potential employers and university admissions.
• Easy to access and upload online making it portable/manageable 
• physical editions add types of paper , prices etc

Audio visual: 

• Used Adobe Premier to create and edit content with 2 examples of tools used and effects created. 
• We used premier as it is industry standard. File type before exporting is a .proj meaning it is a lossless file  (high quality) where you can layer audio and visuals together. A .proj file is completely editable. 
• We have to repurpose these files as we cannot upload premier files online and even if we could , not everybody would have access to premier. This could be exported to H.264 which creates a lossy file (lower res), this wouldn’t be as big in terms of file size. An mp4 file is universally compatible meaning everybody on every device can access it. 

Audio products: 

• Professionals would use .wav file types , this is an easily editable lossless file. 
• We would export from .wav to MP3 as this makes it universally accessible. 
• When using industry standard technology, we would have .AUD files which are a direct descendent of Adobe Audition. 
• We cannot upload Audition files online, it may not be compatible with everybody's devices. .AUD files are massive. 

Print/Graphic design: 

• As a part of unit 3 we used .IND and .PSD  which are both lossless file types – these are both large file types.  
• They are large because you can edit in layers which creates elements to your documents. which layer up. These files again are not accessible to everybody.  
• .Jpegs can be compressed as lossy or lossless files which can be used universally. 
• Raw files need to be repurposed to .Jpegs  
• We saved our print work as print pdf which makes it accessible and easy to print – you cannot edit these kinds of files making them lossy (read only). 
• .Tiff are universal therefore anybody can open them , tiff is a print file which is a lossless file type giving your prints a high quality finish. Because our magazine pages were intended for printing therefore needed to be lossless.
