Microsoft Publisher was the main program used to create the magazine pages. SurveyMonkey allowed the creator to send out surveys to collect data on the target audience. Photoshop helped ensure pictures and headings were of good quality by allowing editing of backgrounds and colors. An iPhone 7 took high-quality photos needed for the pages. Fontspace.com found fonts suitable for the genre and audience, making production easier.
2. TECHNOLOGIES AND EQUIPMENT I
USED MAKING MY MAGAZINE
• Photoshop
• Fontspace.com
• Surveymonkey
• Iphone 7
• Microsoft publisher
3. MICROSOFT PUBLISHER
• This was the main program I used to make my magazine because this was where my
magazine pages were actually created.
• I think this program allowed me to create my pages without to much hassle because
this is a very simple and easy to use program but at the same time it is a very effect
program to use because the end product is to a very good standard.
• I also think it allowed to use my own skills because its not a complicated program to
use so it allowed me use all of skills to create my pages to what I think is a good
standard.
• Finally I think it allowed me to make mistakes but as easily as I made them it let me
take them away which is very good because then it didn’t matter if I messed up a piece
of the page.
4. SURVEYMONKEY
• This is a website that lets you create a survey on what you want to be about and then
wither send it out by email or put it on the website so people can answer your
questions that you want to ask.
• I think this website allowed to create my pages to a better standard because I was able
to send out surveys to help me get information that I needed to create my pages, for
example I was able to send out surveys to see what type of target audience I was going
to make my pages for. This meant I was able to collect the data from the survey and
then try and make my magazine for the target audience.
5. PHOTOSHOP
• This was a very big program in the making of my magazine. This is because this is the
program that used the most except Microsoft publisher which was the program that I
actually made my magazine on.
• I think this program allowed me to make sure that my pictures where up to a good
standard because if there was a background that needed taking away then I would put
the picture on Photoshop which meant that the picture was okay to go on the page for
the magazine.
• I also think that this program allowed me to make sure my headings where up too a
good standard as well because if they wasn’t then I would also put them on Photoshop
to try and sort them out, for example if they needed changing colour then it was easy
to put then on here change then the colour
6. IPHONE 7
• This product was a main part in the production of my magazine. This is because if I
didn’t use this then I wouldn’t actually have a magazine.
• I think this product allowed to take a picture to a very good standard because it has a
very good camera on it, which helped me because then I had a good phone which had
a good camera on it so I could take good and detailed pictures to go on my pages.
7. FONTSPACE.COM
• This is an online program that you can use to help you find a good font that suits your
genre and target audience.
• I used this website to help me find the right font that suited my genre and target
audience. This website made the production of my magazine a lot easier because I
didn’t have to try and make up the fonts that I needed for my magazine.
