3. SOFT WARES!
Adobe Photoshop CS5
I have done most of the work in adobe photo
shop, for example the article page, I imported a
raw image to then edit it and adjust the light in
order for it to look professional as well as to
stand out.
I have learn many stills in photo shop
such as how to crop something out and
move it so it looks better, for example I
had to crop the flying papers in order
to move them in the exact place I
wanted them to be in

4. ADOBE INDESIGN
Adobe InDesign s a desktop publishing software
application produced by Adobe Systems. It can be used to
create works such as posters, flyers, brochures, magazines,
newspapers, and books. InDesign can also publish content
suitable for tablet devices in conjunction with Adobe
Digital Publishing Suite. I have used it to create the text
for my article
I have never used InDesign
before therefore everything
was pretty new however I
learnt how to make text go
around an object, for
example a circle which I used
in the article. I couldn’t
import the finished product
from InDesign back into
Photoshop therefore I
copied and pasted the text
from InDesign onto
Photoshop

5. WORDPRESS.COM
I have never used word press
before however I used similar
websites such as Tumblr therefore
I knew how to create pages easily
or upload certain things.

6. POWER-POINT AND PREZI
Above is an example of what I have done
in Prezi, it’s a little bit like a power-point
but has more effects and looks better
because it guides you through
information in a fun way.
I have used power-point to answer some
of the questions as I thought that would
be a nicer way to lay out answers than
just answering them on the blog, after
finishing the power-point I had to
upload it to slide-shire to then imbed
the power-point onto the website so it’s
visible.

7. YOU-TUBE AND FIRE-FOX
I have used both YouTube and Firefox
to help me with the final piece. I have
used YouTube when I didn’t know
how to do something on Photoshop
however I didn’t know how t then I
watched tutorials.
I have used Firefox as the main search
engine to look for ideas and access
Wordpress.com etc.

8. LIGHTROOM
Lightroom is a little bit like Photoshop
however you can do more photo editing for
example changing the contrast or the color. I
have used that at home as we don’t have that
program in school. I have used Lightroom to
edit raw photos that I have taken.

9. HARDWARES
Nikon d5200
I have used two cameras to finish
my overall magazine because first I
have had the Nikon COOLPIX
L830 which is the red camera, then
I have bought a new camera which
is the Nikon d5200 therefore I
used that one for all the other
photos.

10. I-MAC, MOUSE AND KEYBOARD
I have used an IMAC to do everything in
school and at home to make it easier and
to not have to transfer anything onto a
different format to work so I would be
able to work at home as well as in school.
I have done everything on those
computers such as, Wordpress,
PowerPoint, YouTube etc.
I have learnt a lot of new skills for example on
Photoshop I learnt a lot of new tricks that I could so
with the mouse and keyboard to make the editing
easier.

11. PHONE AND MEMORYSTICK
I have used both a Samsung galaxy s3
and a memory stick to keep my photos
on because I thought this would be
easier and if I forgot a memory stick I
always had the photos on my phone.
To add the photos from my phone
onto the computer I also used an USB
Cable which allowed me take any
photos of my phone onto the
computer to then use them.

12. SCANNER
The scanner allowed me scan any
piece of writing or drawing that I
have done by hand onto the
computer, I used the scanner when
I was scanning the rough piece of
what the cover is going to look like
which I could upload onto
Wordpress.com and write about it.
I have never used a scanner before therefore
I had to have some help however I got the
hang of it quickly.

13. OVERALL
Overall technology has helped me a lot in creating the cover,
content and article pages. I have used everything that a
professional publisher would use in order to produce the best
product, for example Photo-shop to edit the photographs. I had
to consider everything when taking photos such as the model had
to face the camera and possibly look straight at the lens in order to
get the best image, I also had to edit them to make them look
more professional and for that I have used LightRoom.
