Printer
Adobe Photoshop
Internet

3. Adobe Photoshop
I used Adobe Photoshop to make my music
magazine’s front cover and editing the photos on my
contents and double page spread. I used many
effects on photos and text to make it suitable for my
target audience. Also, the effect on Photoshop were
easy to use and had very clear results meaning my
product was enticing and looked professional. For
example, drop shadow made my text grab the
readers attention and the healing tool gave the bands
are model like finish. On other programmes I doubt
there would have been such a wide range of
techniques I could have used to make my magazine
look like a real music magazine.

4. InDesign
• I used Adobe InDesign to make my contents
page and double page spread. Adobe
InDesign gave me the ability to set out my
contents and double page spread in a
professional way which was simple to use.
Also, I was able to put frames around text
and pictures to help them stand out against
the background. Although I could not have
edited images in InDesign it was very easy to
place my edited images from Photoshop to
my contents and double page spread.

5. Blogger
• I used blogger.com to publish all my work on one easy
webpage. It enabled me to see the progress of my work and
then make relevant changes. Blogger.com allowed me to
show different IT skills and publish my work from other
websites such as Prezi, Scribd and SlideShare through the use
of embed codes. I updated my own personal blog on
blogger.com every time I had completed a new task from the
task booklet.
