1. Question 6 – What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?

2. Technologies used
I have used the following equipment while creating my
three media products:
 Photoshop
 QuarkXpress
 DSLR camera
 Voice recorder

3. Photoshop
I learnt how to use Photoshop from scratch to create
my front cover and to edit photos to use on my other
pages. For example I now know how to manipulate
images e.g cutting them out and how to add text. I
can also edit text in ways such as adding drop
shaddows. Even though I had only briefly used
Photoshop before by the end of my production work
I could use it with ease. It is very simple to pick up
and easy to work with.

4. QuarkXpress
I also learnt how to use Quark from scratch to create
my contents page and double page spread. Once
again I had never used this piece of software before
but by the time I had finished my production I could
use it with ease to make a magazine. For example I
now know how to add a run around the outside of
the quote I used to break up my text and how to
insert a drop capital. I also know how to insert
images and text.

5. Online technologies
I have also used a number of technologies through websites
these are:
 Blogger – this is were I have displayed all of my work.
A number of online presentational devices which include:
 Prezi
 Slideshare
 Sliderocket
 XtraNormal
 Glogster
