Development print
Within experiments creating front covers and double page spreads for a magazine, the author learned valuable skills in Photoshop and InDesign. For front covers, they explored different color schemes and layouts to understand what looks aesthetic and draws in audiences. They also realized preferences for their actual magazine cover. For double page spreads, practice helped improve InDesign text skills though their first attempt needs tweaking. Overall, the experiments provided a learning curve to strengthen techniques for the main project.

Magazine evaluation
The student recreated a magazine cover using Photoshop and InDesign. They first placed themselves over the original cover to only show the background. Then they brought the text forward to match the original and added side text. Lastly, they centered more text to complete the recreation. Creating the text in InDesign was challenging as the student was new to the program, but they eventually learned how to match the fonts. The best parts were seeing similarities form and tweaking photos in Photoshop; however, being new to the design programs was also the biggest weakness.

Close up photography pre production
This document outlines a production schedule and plan for a close up photography collage project. It includes an estimated timeline with dates for taking practice shots, reviewing them, planning the collage, taking final photos, making the collage, and presenting it.

The student created a collage of close-up photographs as their individual project. They began by brainstorming ideas and settled on doing close-up photography of everyday objects. The student took over 80 photos of objects like pens, pencils, and toys. They presented the photos in a collage by gluing them onto two rectangular boards joined with hinges, like a book. The student discussed the process of taking the photos and some challenges, like equipment limitations. They received positive feedback on the collage from peers and teacher. The student was happy with the final product but noted it took a long time to complete due to printer and glue issues.

Annie leibovitz
Annie Leibovitz is an American photographer born in 1949. She began her career at Rolling Stone magazine in 1970 and later worked for Vanity Fair beginning in 1983. From the late 1980s onward, she has published and exhibited her photography work while also doing high-profile advertising campaigns.

She came from a family that owned a tapestry gallery and workshop and would help fill in worn designs as a child.
Cadburys advert
The Cadbury's adverts aimed to create a strong, memorable brand image through ads that people would recognize as Cadbury's even without explicit branding. The document's author believes the ads achieved this goal by focusing on fun themes that stood out from competitors and using digital graphics at the end to showcase the product being advertised, effectively communicating Cadbury's message.
Hmv
HMV started in 1921 on Oxford Street in London and takes its name from "His Master's Voice", the inspiration for its iconic logo depicting Nipper the dog listening to a gramophone. The logo was first used in 1921 to advertise HMV and aimed to get people to buy products from HMV and remember the brand, goals which the advertisements successfully achieved through their distinctive use of animation that stood out among other ads of the time.
The rule of thirds
The rule of thirds is a guideline for composing visual images that suggests that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections. Placing subjects of interest at these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition compared to centering the subject in the middle of the frame. Following this guideline can help create more aesthetically pleasing and interesting photographs.
How to be a runner
Runners are entry-level film production roles that help keep everything running smoothly by providing support across all areas. Runners help ensure production crews have what they need to do their jobs and make sure celebrities are where they need to be. The job requires a willing attitude, the ability to work long hours including weekends, and flexibility. While pay is modest, especially for lower budget films, being a runner provides a useful stepping stone for careers in media.

Hmv bag evaluation
- 1. Evaluation of my HMV Bag Project What programs did you use? I used a program called Photoshop to create and design my bag. What tools did you use? I used the gradient tool to give the effect on the front of my bag. Have you learnt any new skills or used any tools you haven’t before? Yes I’ve learnt how to use Photoshop and the tools on the program such as the quick select tool gradient tool blur tool and many more What are the strengths and weaknesses of your bag? The strengths of my bag were mostly in the design of the art work on the bag. The weaknesses of my HMV bag project were coming up with artists/albums to put on the bag and when we had to actually put the bag together it didn’t go together very well. Are you pleased with it? Yes I’m pleased with the outcome of my HMV bag but if I had a bit more experience with Photoshop and bag designing. What would you change or do differently if you did this project again?I would maybe choose different artists/albums and taken more time to learn the more advanced features of Photoshop and not just jump into it and not knowing how to produce a very high standard piece of work.
