RESEARCH: MY MEDIA WORLD

  • I use my iPhone 4S for making short phone calls, text messaging, web browsing and apps, such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
    Best feature: social networking apps.
    • I use my MacBook Pro to serf the web and to also stream TV shows and movies from Netflix. 
    • I use my Xbox to play video games such as GTA 5 and FIFA 14. I also use the Xbox to watch Netflix on a bigger screen (TV) and also for Sky Player which allows me to watch live television via the internet.
    • I use Instagram to take pictures and also record short videos as the app allows me to share the pictures/video's immediately with followers and friends.
    • I use Twitter to update my fans about what I'm doing on a daily basis, and to also find out world news and celebrity gossip.
    • I use Facebook to update my friends on daily occurrences, and to also use the very simply but effective chat option, to keep in contact with peers.
    • I use my iPad mostly when moving around the house, or even outside the house, whilst traveling because it is easy to transport and quick to use.
    • I use Netflix to catch up on TV shows and movies, whether new or old. Examples of things I have watched on Netflix include: Breaking Bad and Orange is the New Black. 
    • I use Blogger for my Media Studies AS and A2 course to update my teacher and the future examiner on what I have been doing. My homework is also recorded on blogger for AS and A2 media. 
    • I use Spotify to listen to all of my music. I am a subscribed member to Spotify and pay £4.99 a month for unlimited music that I can stream offline.  
    • I use the Canon 550D to take pictures and record video. 
    • I go to the Cinema occasionally to see the latest Blockbuster hits and to contribute to the film industry by paying for films legally in order for them to continue to make films.
