Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

6. Microsoft Paint
I used paint to:
• Scan in and colour the original title for my
magazine
• To crop images
• To convert Publisher documents (such as mock
ups) into JPEG documents, to post on my blog.
(Print screen -> Paint -> save as JPEG -> Blog)
7. Adobe Photoshop
I used Photoshop to-
• Edit the saturation of images
• Edit the exposure of images
• Edit the white balance of images
• To add ‘highlight’ to images
• To ‘sharpen’ images
• To add ‘fill light’ to images
8. These images show an example of how I used
Photoshop.
I changed the saturation of this image.
Before After
12. I used Microsoft Paint, Publisher, and Adobe
Photoshop because I found them easy programs
to use. I cannot afford the editing technology
that would have been used to create a ‘real’
magazine. I used the resources available to
me, that made my product look as conventional
as possible.
14. Blogger
I used blogger to show all
of my coursework. I used it
because it is a very
interactive medium, and I
feel that media coursework
should be expressed in this
way, because after
all, media is all about the
audience. It is easy to
construct a blog using
blogger, and it is easy to
access the blog for
audiences.
15. Survey Monkey
I used Survey Monkey to
conduct my target audience
survey during the research
stage of my coursework. This
method was easy to use, for
me and participants, and
allowed me to collect vital
information from my final
product, such as what the
audience feel they want in an
Urban music magazine. I then
used this information in the
construction stages of my
coursework for my final
product.
16. Facebook
I used Facebook to distribute my survey to my
target audience. It was a quick, easy and
effective method of distribution, due to the fact
that the majority of Facebook users fit into my
target audience. Eg. Aged 15-25, socio-economic
group C2DE. This meant that the results that I
received were relevant to my music magazine
product.
17. Youtube
I used Youtube to upload the videos of my audience
videos (feedback, ect), and to search for tutorials
for Photoshop. I used Youtube because it is the
largest video sharing website in the world (that I am
aware of). This meant that I was sure that I would
be able to find the tutorial videos, and because I
already had a Youtube account, it was easy to
upload my videos, and then embed them to my
blog. This method is quicker than to upload the
video straight to Blogger.
18. Slideshare
I used Slideshare to upload Microsoft
Powerpoint presentations onto my blog, such as
this one. I feel that it is an interesting and
interactive medium to use on a blog. It is fun,
visual, and looks much less cluttered than if I
were to just use paragraph upon paragraph on
my blog.
20. iPod touch
I used my iPod touch to take
the images for my recce for my
final product. I used it because
it was easy to use, I carry it all
of the time so it is easily
accessible, and the images did
not need to be of high quality
(iPod touch’s are 0.7
megapixles).
21. Sony SLR
I used this camera to take the images for my school
magazine, and my music magazine. I used it because it
produced higher quality images than my iPod because it
is a higher megapixel camera. In the construction of ‘real’
magazines, much higher megapixel camera’s would be
used, however this camera was made available by my
school, so this was all I was able to use. It was easy to
use, and did the job it was intended for. However, if I had
the chance, I would have taken images with a higher
quality camera.
22. Tripod
I used a tripod to hold the
camera whilst taking the images
for my final product. I did this so
that my images were
straight, and steady. I did not use
it for my school magazine, and
had never used one previous to
the construction of my music
magazine. However, I am glad
that I used it for my final
magazine. It made the images
look more professional.
23. Apple Mac
Before I began my a-level
media coursework, I had
never used an Apple Mac
before. At first I found
them almost impossible
to use. But after some
experimenting, I
eventually became used
to them. However, this
happened too late for
me to construct any of
my products using the
Macs. Nevertheless, I
blogged on the Macs.
24. Windows Computer
I used Window’s PC’s for my
school magazine and music
magazine. I used my Window’s
laptop primarily, because it was
easily accessible, and I was
familiar with it and all of its
programs before I began my
coursework. This made the
process of construction of my
products a lot easier. I also used
the school Window’s computers
to finish Microsoft publications
that I created at home. I
transferred these documents
using my memory stick.
25. Memory Stick
I used my memory stick
for my school magazine
and music magazine. I
used it to transfer my
documents from my
laptop to the school
computers, and vice
versa. I also used email to
do this, however, my
school has an EMBC block
on most
websites, including
Hotmail, so memory stick
was an easier method.
26. Scanner
I used a scanner to scan
in the drawings of my
original music magazine
title. I also used it to scan
in the draft ideas for my
music magazine plan. It
was an easy method to
use, and when uploaded
onto my blog, looked
very personal. So I liked
this method, rather than
all of my work being
computer generated.
27. Printer
I used a printer to print out
my school magazine
cover, and my music
magazine to show my
audience the products as
real-life products. I felt that
this way, they would get a
more realistic opinion of the
appearance of my
products, as they were the
