grey, because I needed to add a break in my
plan, therefore, I used the “Merge & Center” Button
3. Questionnaire
I inserted a table so that my potential target audience can tick what
option they prefer. this make the data much easier for me to handle
4. I want my questionnaire to look very organised and easy to read, therefore, I
didn’t want as much space for tick boxes. So, I have instead used the
symbol for tick boxes, to help my questionnaire look very neat.
5. Questionnaire Results
To be able to represent the percentages of my results from my
questionnaire, I used graphs. These are much more helpful than writing the
answers e.g. tally’s, because these help visually.

white. Then I used the opacity effect, and
made it 44%, to create a transparent
background for the body text

“differences”, which changes the colour on different parts of the text, to
contrast the colour from the background. Hence the reason why there is
many different colours on the text

that the picture is a part of the frame
31. Cropping
Because I want to advertise Make-up, I needed a close up of the face, therefore I

the smudge tool to blend it in the background, to make a smooth texture
