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

2. Adobe InDesign
 This was a key program in the
construction of my music magazine. It
allowed my to create my cover page,
contents page and article in a
sophisticated style.
 This program has many tools that with
induction and practice (through my
preliminary task), I felt by the time it came
to produce my music magazine, I was able
to use this efficiently.

3. Adobe Photoshop
 This program is one I was only briefly
introduced to. I used it’s background
erasing tools to subtract the background
away from the images in my preliminary
task.When I came to use this tool on my
music magazine images, I felt the practice
had lead me enabling using the tool more
efficiently with better results.

4. Digital Camera
 I used a digital camera to take all the images
I used for my music magazine, as well as
other props like the addition of a lamp for
brightness on the face of my artist ‘Ella’.
 The reason behind this was that I felt other
camera devices, such as a mobile phone
camera, would not give as good quality, and
would therefore tarnish the overall
presentation of my magazine.

5. Blogger
 I used Blogger regularly throughout the
progress of my music magazine production.
 I used my account to upload all drafts of my
production, as well as drawn drafts, image
selection, target audience and music
magazine pages research, etc.
 I found it simple, easy, and quick to use,
displaying my progress in a sophisticated and
professional presentation, through a diary-
like manner.

6. Prezi
 Prezi is another online application that I have had to
get accustomed with as I used this, not only to display
my music magazine research, but also during my
evaluation.
 This alternate way of presenting certain aspects of my
evaluation was chosen as using the online site was
quick and easy. It’s inventive designs allow my content
to be displayed in a visually different and appealing
manner, which I consider a breath of fresh air from
the sometimes bland presentation of continuous
essay-like layouts.
 By using creative tools such as arrows, it can convey
content in such a way that can be more easily
understood.

7. PowerPoint/Slideshare
 I used PowerPoint to display some aspects of
my progress in the production of my
magazine, such as the results of my target
audience questionnaire.
 It allows the observer to accurately follow
slides of what I’m conveying, in a simple, yet,
effective way.This simplicity helps not to
distract the observer from the progress of
my production, but allow them to view it in
a clear manner.

8. The Internet
 The internet has mainly been the foundation in
the progress of my music magazine, in addition to
Adobe InDesign.
 It allowed me to access online applications such
as Prezi and Slideshare, that I used to display
questionnaire results, research and certain parts
of evaluation.
 In some areas of this research I could use the
search engine Google to collect images like, the
music magazine pages, to use for analysis.
 Also, I could use the site Blogger to post my
progress easily and efficiently.
