2. What have you learnt about the
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?
3. Major part of this project was the photographs.
Having a good selection of photographs will ensure a
more professional and better looking magazine.
Using the Sony DSLR-A290 camera allowed me to
explore different settings, ensuring me the best
results possible.Certain settings including using
Night mode and Flash when taking photos in darker
areas.The Zoom on the camera allowed me to take
photos of many different aspects of the model.This
camera allows you to use manual adjustments which
ensures that you can adjust the camera in order to
suit the setting and time. Certain features include:
light exposure, mega pixel, resolution and facial
recognition. Being able to use this camera any time I
wanted was very beneficial.
4. Having NEVER used Photoshop before, It took me a
while to get the hang out it. Once I learnt about some
of the features, it was frequently used in the editing
of my photos, allowing me to have creative control.
Through the use of the Photoshop, I learnt how to
use various features such asThe Clone StampTool:
This tool allowed me to get rid of blemishes and
smooth out the backgrounds of the photos. I used
this tool a lot during the process.At the beginning, I
was not sure on how to use it properly but as I used it
more, I became confident and happy using it for the
improvement of my photos.Contrast and Brightness
Adjustment:These adjustments allowed me to
directly edit the photo itself.This meant that I was
able to draw more attention to my models allowing
their features to stand out more. Both adjustments
sharpen the photos and this was extremely beneficial
to me during the process.
5. At first, It was very hard to get the
hang of using Blogger as it was
again, something I have NEVER
used before.After my preliminary
task, I began to Understand it
more. I was able to Post and Create
successful labels on each post.
Although it was hard to get my
layout sorted at first, It began to
take shape allowing me to work
successfully on my posting.
6. Slideshare Used for evaluation
Questions and other
presentations. Slideshare was a
useful side that allowed me to
insert a Power Point presentation
onto my blog. I think it has
allowed me to present my work
through an interesting and
professional form of media.
7. Overall I feel that all of the technology that I
used helped me to gather new skills as well as
making it easier to complete my work on this
project while making everything look as
professional as possible. From editing pictures,
taking pictures, uploading documents and
everything.
