2. WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT ABOUT TECHNOLOGIES
FROM THE PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTING THIS
PRODUCT?
3. ADOBE PHOTOSHOP
For my front cover I learnt how to use the pen tool in order to highlight an area of my image and remove
the background from it. I did this because the mise-en-scene of the background didn’t relate to my genre
so it represented my genre better if I removed the background.
Also, I learned how to use the blending options on
different layers in order to add different effects and
make the text and images look more attractive to
my target audience. I added an orange outer glow to
my images in order to match the colour scheme I
wanted to use.
4. INDESIGN
I hadn’t used Adobe InDesign before, so everything was new to me. I had to research myself
how to edit the text size, colour and placement of images. The place tool was the one I used
the most (File>Place) as I used an image as the background for my double page spread.
The place tool allowed me to do this buy finding my image and clicking place, it then
resized it for me in order to get the best fit for my page.
