It provides more detail on Photoshop as an image editing tool, Blogger for blogging, and Powtoon and Prezi as presentation tools. The document also covers how the person's skills with Photoshop and digital cameras improved during the process, why specific technologies were chosen, and that Blogger and Photoshop were the most useful overall.

2. What technologies did I use during
my process of construction
 Photoshop- to construct my final product (magazine)
 Sound cloud – to find out what music went with my
genre (future/deep house)
 powtoon- to do some of my evaluation questions
 Prezi- to create audience profiles to help with my
evaluation question

 Digital camera’s – to take photos for my magazine

and powerpoint etc.

3. Photoshop
 Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe
Systems for Windows and OS X
 Photoshop was created in 1988 by Thomas and John Knoll.
 Since then, it has become the de facto industry standard in raster graphics
editing, such that the word "photoshop" has become a verb as in "to Photoshop
an image
 It edits images and can change all sorts of things with them by making all sorts
of layers.

flexible layouts and hundreds of background images, or edit your blog’s CSS

6. Digital Camera’s & Apple Macs
 Digital Camera
 A digital camera or digicam is a camera that encodes digital images and videos digitally and stores
them for later reproduction.
 Most cameras sold today are digital, and digital cameras are incorporated into many devices ranging
from PDAs and mobile phones (called camera phones) to vehicles.
 Digital and film cameras share an optical system, typically using a lens with a variable diaphragm to
focus light onto an image pickup device.
 Over 1 billion digital camera’s are sold a year.
 Apple Macs
 Apple was founded as a partnership on April Fool’s Day 1976 by three people who originally worked at
Atari: Steven Gary Wozniak (1950- ), Steven Paul Jobs (1955-2011), and Ronald Gerald Wayne (1934- )
 For the first 30 years, Apple was called Apple Computer, Inc. On January 9, 2007, it removed the word
“Computer” to reflect its expanding electronic market.

7. Development of my skills within
technologies
 During my time constructing my magazine I have used various technologies that have
required my skill to improve immensely, in order for my final product to look acceptable
and induct a good grade from the moderator. The main technology I have had to use
during the construction of my final product is photo shop. In the past i have never used
photo shop, not even for fun, so getting to grips with the technology took its time. When
I first started off I struggled with using the technology as i could not get anything to go
right and could not edit my photo very well and even my magazine. It took time but i
eventually began to get to grips with photo shop and this allowed me to develop my
magazine a lot more. It allowed me to edit my photos and also make various changes to
my magazine. Another way I developed my skills within technology is my skills with a
Digital camera. I have never been the one for taking constant photo's with digital
camera’s or taking photo’s on my phone, but when it came to taking photo’s of models
when performing my photo shoot, I practised camera angles and poses that models could
use and found, that when I was taking the photo’s of my models during the photo shoot
that I was capturing different camera poses using various camera angles and found that,
with the camera I felt comfortable and enjoyed conducting the photo shoot.

8. Why did I choose to use certain
technologies.
 Photo shop- I chose to use photo shop to finish my final product, by
editing photos and my magazine.
 Digital camera’s- I chose to use digital camera to gather the best quality
photo’s for my magazine during my photo shoot.
 Powtoon & Prezi- I chose to use powtoon & prezi to help with audience
profiles and my evaluation questions
 Apple macs- I chose to use apple Mac’s to do powerpoints, use word
and photo shop etc. This was because it was easier to use than a
standard computer or laptop as apple mac’s jave a great advancement in
technology.
 Blogger- I choose to use blogger as it allowed me to share all my
information with other users and people as it was easier to share my
completed work and progression.

9. The most useful technologies
 I found that for final product construction that blogger and photo shop
have been the two most useful technologies, I have used. Bloggger
made it very useful to keep people updated step by step on how I got
information for intended audience, what genre of music I was using for
magazine basis, what the genre was about etc. Photo shop (for me) has
been the most useful technology throughout this experience. It was
very good for editing my final product (magazine). It allowed me to put
stuff onto my front cover, contents page and double page spread. It also
allowed me to edit my photos so that they fitted onto my magazine. I
could also add extra’s onto my photo’s to make them look more unique,
so they looked different from others. It further allowed me to make my
magazine look futuristic to fit my genre of music (future and deep
house).
