New Technological Skills By Raif Howley
Before starting this coursework, I had never used Adobe photoshop, nor a Mac. But now, I almost feel like a pro, able to create layers, lock layers, change colours of fonts and pictures, contrast photos and lay out a magazine effectively.  However, I did face some problems whilst using the programme, sometimes, it would be difficult for me to use a consistent masthead as the background colour would go in front of it if I decided it looked better a little to the right or left. At the beginning of my teaching of photoshop, I found it hard also to lock the layers and ‘auto-select’ on shapes and photos, even though all it took was the shift button or a little tab at the top of the screen.    The most useful thing about using a Mac was that you could use the screen-grab tool to get pictures of anything saved to your desktop. All you had to do was press “command”, “shift” and “4” and a cursor would come up, clicking down on the corner of the part of the screen you wanted to save, you would then let go of the cursor when it reached the other side of the image to create the screen-grab.
I used the following link to help me create my masthead: http://www.dafont.com/ This site helped me create my masthead as I chose the font I wanted to write in from it, then manipulated it by changing the colours and embossing it, and also adding shadow to add to the boisterous effect of the ‘Trashco’ font. I made it black and red to continue my colour scheme, which is evident throughout the magazine. Also, I used other fonts such as ‘Thirsty For Souls’, to compare and see which font would best suit the target audience and the overall purpose of my magazine.
