2. The main things I have learned
during this project is in
Photoshop. Before I began
constructing magazine in
Media, I have never used
Photoshop before, but with the
help of my lecturers and
colleagues I can now
comfortably product 4 pages of
a magazine. Also, during our
lessons we had students share
one top tip for Photoshop and
give us a tutorial on how to use
certain tools, which was also a
massive help.
3. I also learned all about photography, and all
the different lighting styles. For example,
the 2 main lighting styles in photography is
high key and low key.
High key photography tends to eliminate all
shadows, and produce very lively and bright
photos, usually with a white background. A
lot of these photos tend to lack saturation
and are sometimes in completely black and
white.
Low key photography is a lot more dramatic
and mysterious, having almost everything in
shadow except for certain points of the
subject where the light hits it. These photos
also usually have a dark background.
4. Another thing I learned relating to photography is different camera angles.
A medium close up is from
the top of the head to just
above the waist.
A medium shot is from the
waist to the top of the head.
A medium long shot is from
the knees to the top of the
head.
A high angle shot is taken
from above the subject.
A close up just includes the
head.
A low angle shot is taken
from below the subject.
A full body shot includes the
full subject.
