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

2. Programmes I used
• Adobe Photoshop
• QuarkXPress Passport
• Blogger.com
• Prezi
• Slide share
• Scrap blog
• The internet

3. Through the process of creating my
magazine, I have used different
programmes such as Photoshop
and Quark express.

4. Photoshop and Quark
I have learnt all of the different functions of
Photoshop and have professional it can really
make something look. I didn’t realize that just
putting a shadow or shading on a line of words
can make turn a front cover from amateur to
professional. This taught me to edit pictures and
how to position everything. Quark Express was
really useful in my production because I learnt
how do import text into the columns and set out
my contents page and double page spread like a
professional magazine would.

5. Presenting my Work
I also used slide share, prezi and scrap blog to
present my work. I learnt that it is important
to set out your work in more appealing
formats. These programmes helped me to
analyze my products better and to present
them in a more appealing way.

6. Cameras and Audio
I used cameras through out my magazine to take all
of my pictures used in my magazine and on my
blog. This helped my magazine to look
professional with the quality cameras. Also, being
able to take my pictures myself helped me get the
right look and style for the genre of my music
magazine. Audio also helped when conducting
interviews. This meant that I could capture every
word of an interview so I wouldn't miss anything
important that could go into my magazine.

7. The Internet
The internet played a big part in the process of
making my magazine. Without the internet I
wouldn’t have collected all of the information I
have and I wouldn’t have been able to have any
samples of magazines to base my magazine on.
The internet enables me to use blogger, slide
share, prezi and scrap blog which has helped me
to present my work in a better way than on a
plain document. My target audience will be able
to view my magazine through the internet aswell
so it is really useful for getting feedback ect on
my magazine.

8. Over the production of my magazine, I have
learnt a lot about the different programmes
and how different they can make my magazine
look compared to producing it on word or
publisher. I have learnt that without all of
these programmes together, there would be
no production because they all work together
and are equally important.
