The document discusses various technologies used to create a magazine product. It describes using Photoshop to edit photos by adjusting lighting, removing shadows, and using various fonts. Prezi and Slideshare were used for research, planning and evaluations - Slideshare to place PowerPoints on a blog, and Prezi for two evaluations. Pixlr is described as an easy to use photo editing website. A Nikon D3200 camera was used to take photos for the magazine in automatic or portrait settings.

2. Using Photoshop
• Last year was the first time I had ever used
Photoshop, and that was for media and
photography, this year I am a lot more confident
and have become skillful at using it. For example…
Using different photo editing skills
such as changing the curve of the
image I am able to change the
lighting and get rid of any
shadowing to make the photo fit the
genre of indie.

3. Here I have
demonstrated how
with Photoshop
you are able to use
a variety of fonts to
ensure that it best
fits your genre of
magazine, for mine
I decided on using a
wide variety in
order to appeal to
the youth. As you
can see in the image
on the right there
were many
different fonts that I
was able to get off
of Photoshop
When making the
magazine I had to ensure
everything fir into place,
with the free transform
tool I am able to
manipulate the size of
the pictures in order to
take up a specific
amount of space or fit
into the magazine.

4. Prezi and Slideshare
I used Slideshare for some of my research
and planning and for my some of my
evaluation questions. This was effective as
it allowed me to easily place PowerPoint's
onto my blog. It is easy to use and is a
good way of making your work look more
professional and unique.
Prezi is a lot more complicated than
Slideshare to use but once you have
adjusted to it you can benefit largely from
it. It is a very creative way to set up a
presentation or some work, I have used
Prezi for 2 of my evaluation questions.

5. Pixlr
• Pixlr is a photo editing website which is easy to use
and can add great affects to any images.

6. Nikon D3200
The Nikon D3200 is the camera I used in
Order to take the photos for my magazine.
It’s settings allow for amateur and
Professional photographers a like to capture
The best images.
While using the camera I was not very
Adventurous with the settings, I used either
Automatic or portrait in order to take the
Photos, this was effective in capturing good
Quality images.
