Google Maps
PROs
This was very useful as we done online location recce of some possible sites
It is also convenient because we could rule out sites without having wasted time travelling there
Google maps was not completely up to date, at times pictures were from 2013 - so there may have been a chance that the locations we removed from our list might have been good enough for our shoot.
CONs

WhatsApp
PROs
CONs
Sometimes we would not get the text because our phones would be off etc. and so we would miss important information
It was very convenient and very useful as it made communication simple
We could send messages really quickly and get information out to a person even if they were at home
Overall:
Giphy
PROs
CONs
Overall:
Using giphy was very useful as I could create small clips which exemplified a point I was making
They were also aesthetically pleasing and fit very well with my work.
At times it was hard to embed the video, and I would have to edit the size of the gif
however this was a minuscule problem as the outcome of the gif would be great.
