What's different about these 3 groups?
These three groups, hardware, software and websites are different as they each have different uses and required skill levels. The hardware I used was mostly for capturing medias such as photographs and film footage (aside from the computers, which were used to handle said medias and software), while the software enabled me to improve on my work further (such as enhancing images through Photoshop and editing clips together in Adobe Premiere Pro). The websites I used are a lot different in that they were used to present final formats of work and communicate with my target audience. In terms of skill level, hardware items such as DSLR cameras and software programs such as Adobe Premiere Pro require at least a small amount of prior experience to be able to operate them, as DSLRs are not solely 'point-and-shoot' cameras and have lots of different opportunities for creativity. The software programs can generally be learned over a period of time, but prior experience (even if it's only with other Adobe programs or more basic forms) is very helpful. Websites, however, tend to be a lot more user-friendly and there is an infinite number of platforms to choose from for research, presentation and audience interaction.
