Evaluation Question 6

I have learnt about a few technologies that were on offer from the process of constructing my products. These were Photoshop, Blogger and Flickr. The most influential software for constructing my front cover, contents page and double page spread was Photoshop. This program enabled me to manipulate and create the aesthetics for the magazine I wanted. Blogger was the technology that was chosen to upload and submit all of my work. Flickr was an extension onto blogger to upload pictures and add tags to them. Photoshop allowed me to change the page size so for example from A4(front cover or contents page) to A3(double page spread). Photoshop also taught me that the angle I took my photographs at was also important to be able to change the contrast and add effects. Also using the rulers to line up and make the text boxes precisely in the correct position. All of the images I chose to turn black and white corresponded well with the red that I chose to use a lot. Finally I used the internet as a resource to gain information about magazines and to look for images. Blogger and Flickr are also an online service so the internet was utilized effectively.
