In both these questions i wanted to know if people thought
Most people thought the products looked professional, but the author would have preferred more people answering "certainly" to questions about professional appearance. Feedback showed the author should have spent more time ensuring a perfectly professional look. Respondents clearly saw the correlation between the three products, pleasing the author who worked to achieve this. Qualitative comments in one question provided limited but useful feedback, such as ideas about colors and screen size the author had already considered. Not all respondents felt silhouettes suited the style of one song, which the author expected due to the creative nature of that design choice.
The adventures of prince achmed
The Adventures of Prince Achmed inspired the creator's music video with its creative early animation techniques. It used silhouette animation and cardboard cutouts. While the creator wants to use people instead to make the process less time consuming and better suit the genre of music. The vintage look appeals to the creator but color use must be considered carefully to avoid looking unprofessional and maintaining the focus on the visuals rather than telling an elaborate story.
Research effects
This document discusses three video effects: 1) A high contrast, vintage look effect that adds nostalgia and interest; 2) Green screening, which uses a green background to cut out footage and replace it, working for both scenes and objects; 3) Key framing, which interests the author for its potential to create amazing random effects through easy placement of images, though it risks looking tacky if not done properly.
Evaluation
This document summarizes the key learnings and skills gained from creating a magazine called "Music Junkie" for a course. It discusses improving Photoshop skills like using the spot healing tool to remove blemishes from model photos. Directing a photo shoot to achieve desired effects was another new experience. Feedback was gathered through survey tools like Survey Monkey, which was a useful resource the creator was previously unaware of. Overall, confidence with Photoshop and magazine design grew throughout the project.
Survey monkey results
The majority of respondents to the survey were female between 16-18 years old. Respondents liked the colors used and said the magazine looked professional with good photography. They also found the contents page easy to navigate. The magazine was successful in portraying the featured artist as the author intended - as a rebellious, independent, and edgy female. Overall the responses were positive with no suggested changes, though some said the front cover could include more images.
Skills development
The document describes various editing tools and techniques used in Photoshop to design a magazine page. Key steps include:
1. Using the grid tool to align elements neatly on the page.
2. Pasting an image and resizing it using free transform to fit the page properly.
3. Changing the background color and adding a gradient to emphasize the main image.
4. Using selection tools to cut out the masthead and add shaped banners and boxes for text.
5. Editing blemishes on a model's photo and bloated lips for consistency across images.
Skills development
The document provides step-by-step instructions for editing a Photoshop page. It describes using tools like grid view, paste, free transform, and shape to position and size images and elements. It also details using tools like spot healing, drop shadows, and liquefy to edit images by removing blemishes, adding shadows, and adjusting features like lips and body proportions. The overall goal is to neatly layout and professionally retouch images on the Photoshop page.
Notion magazine
The magazine NOTION targets a young, fashion-forward audience interested in trends and pushing boundaries. The unconventional front cover features pop star Nicola Roberts, seen as a fashion figure, to attract fans of music charts and fashion. The bold, capitalized masthead stands out using a font similar to Vogue to seem popular. The contents page uses a modern, text-heavy font to seem intellectual yet trendy for young readers, especially female readers who prefer structure. Double page spreads are minimalist like what may appeal to younger audiences, with large lead images prioritized.
Cd research
The document discusses and summarizes four different album covers:
Rihanna's "Rated R" album features a dark and sexy black and white image of the artist that appeals to both sexes. MIA's "Kala" cover is busy and colorful, reflecting her music, and features a drawing of the artist that may mainly appeal to women. Kanye West's "My Dark Twisted Fantasy" suggests boundary-pushing music with an abstract interracial sex scene. Eminem's "Relapse" shows the artist made of drugs, suggesting heavy drug content, with an explicit content warning.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

College magazine research
- 1. This is a very typical looking magazine type and follows the main conventions of most magazines, such as, an attractive person on the front, a bold masthead and other various headings around the picture. The colours also work well for example the top and the mast head match. All the fonts work well together are work really well together and are really bold. The background all also blurred out slightly to emphasise everything else. Also, all the stories are related to what the target audience would want to read. This cover is a lot more formal than the previous. It has an image showing great architected old buildings suggesting is set on quite an historic site implying the read of the college magazine may be more intellectual. A big different to this and most magazines is the lack of writing and headlines, it is very minimalistic only with a bit of writing in the bottom right corner. The fonts used aren’t very clear and the masthead is not in complete capitals like the majority are. There is just a small banner at the bottom of the page with just a few lines explaining what is within the magazine.
- 2. This magazine is tailored specifically for the sports fans of the college not only mentioning about the local college teams but also the national sports heroes that the typical reader would aspire to be like. It is a bit of a mess with fonts and colours as the clash of yellow, blue and orange doesn’t really work that well. The lead image is different to those you see on most magazines because it is not posed, it is an action shot which is quite fitting for a sports magazine. The writing its self is set all around the pictures and is all related to different sports. The cost price and barcode is in the bottom right which is conventional for most magazines. This magazine is extremely feminine with lots of pinks and whites and females being the main focus on the front. There is a headline running across the front with a brief explanation this is conventional however the 3 pictures with headlines are a bit different as other stories are usually layout around the lead image. There is also a logo of the college in the bottom left hand, personally I think it would have looked better on the right hand corner but it is a good idea to have as it shows it relates to the college. The fonts are also quite young fonts that would appeal to a more teenage/young adult audience than most other fonts.
