6. fmp production reflection
Nathan took a photo at a bridge under a train station to capture an old-fashioned look. He added noise to make it look grainy and adjusted the saturation and exposure to give it a sepia tone. He used the clone stamp tool to remove modern elements from the scene. For precision editing, he used the clone stamp and noise tools in the raw camera filter. He adjusted the hue and saturation to achieve the sepia effect and washed out look that correlates with a dull color scheme preferred by 33% of his audience.
Screen shots
The document provides instructions for using various Photoshop tools and effects to design elements for a music magazine, including:
- Using Drop Shadow and Bevel & Emboss effects to make masthead text stand out
- Cutting models out of photos using Quick Selection and Magic Wand tools
- Creating a blurred effect by copying and blurring an image
- Adding a pink background and lens flares using lighting and filter tools
- Creating rectangular strips and shapes using the Rectangle, Eclipse, and Custom Shape tools to design page spreads
My manipulated images
The document describes how the author edited several images in Photoshop to prepare them for use in a front cover, contents page, and double page spread. Key editing techniques included selecting and deleting backgrounds, adjusting brightness and contrast, cropping, adding borders, duplicating and positioning images, and applying filters to define edges and add color effects. The edits were intended to make the images look more professional and eye catching for their intended uses.
Construction of poster
The document describes the process of creating a movie poster using Photoshop and InDesign. Photos were taken with a Sony digital camera and edited in Photoshop by removing backgrounds and lightening faces. The background was created in Photoshop using cloud and light effects. Edited photos were placed on the background and layered in Photoshop and InDesign. Layering and effects like gradient feathering were used to blend the images with the background and title. Additional elements like reviews, information, and logos were added. Organizing layers helped with editing and moving elements.
Editing photos
To edit photos in Serif Photo Plus, the user first inserts an image and uses tools like PhotoFix to adjust lighting and effects like filters to achieve different looks. They applied effects like glass and blur to focus on characters and experimented with comic and Gaussian effects. They also darkened images for depth, erased backgrounds and composited images onto new backgrounds, blurring the result. In the end, they produced two edited photos with adjusted lighting, effects and composited elements.

The document discusses several experimental photography techniques including long exposure, HDR, panoramic, and light painting photography.
For long exposure photography, the shutter speed is slow, capturing multiple moving cars over a long period of time and creating light trails. HDR photography merges multiple images at different exposures into one image to show a wide range of intensities. Panoramic photography stitches together multiple images to capture a wide field of view. Light painting involves using lights to "paint" exposures during long shutter speeds.
Production - Production Experiments
The document describes three photo editing experiments using tools in Photoshop. In the first experiment, the author used the blur tool to blur out surrounding trees and focus attention on bears in the photo. In the second experiment, tools like the dodge tool, sharpen tool and blur tool were used to make a photo of a lion and cat look brighter, more sketchy and comical. In the third experiment, the dodge tool was used to brighten a photo of birds and the blur tool was used to slightly blur surrounding grass and bushes to focus on the birds.
[Pro forma] experimental photography
- The document discusses several experimental photography techniques: long exposure, tilt shift, panoplanets, and provides examples of each.
- Long exposure uses a slow shutter speed to distort subjects with light trails. Tilt shift uses a tilt shift lens to blur the top and bottom of an image to change perspective. Panoplanets are images stitched together in post to create a warped panoramic effect.
- The techniques can be used for both film and digital photography. Long exposure has traditionally been used but remains popular today. Tilt shift and panoplanets are examples of techniques enabled by new technology.
Software solutions within construction
The document discusses using Photoshop to edit images for a contents page by blurring edges and lowering opacity to blend colors. It also describes using Photoshop's levels tool to brighten dark photos and make models' features more defined, as well as desaturating photos slightly to look more professional. It mentions recording a focus group with a camera and Sony Vegas to solve the problem of forgetting or misremembering quotes due to having to transcribe from memory.
Media evaluation 6
The document discusses technologies learned from constructing a hip-hop magazine. The author used Photoshop to crop and extract images, add strokes and effects to text, and insert text. Indesign allowed placing and sizing images differently than Photoshop. The author created their logo in Illustrator instead of Indesign for ease.
Final poster screeshots
This document summarizes the process of creating a film poster for a horror movie titled "Enigma" using Photoshop. The poster was designed around a close-up studio photo of a man that was cropped to remove the background. Effects were added to make one eye red and the skin tone red to convey horror elements. Different fonts were tested for the title before selecting one. Logos for the distributor and audio were added along with the release date in red and credits at the bottom. The final poster incorporates key horror conventions while revealing minimal details about the plot to generate intrigue.
6. production reflection
The student created two horror movie-style posters over the course of a week. For the first poster, they edited photos by adding color, blood, and shadows. They layered images and adjusted blending modes to refine highlights and tones. For the second poster, they combined two images and blood textures, then copied text from the first poster. Both posters required fine-tuning colors, blending modes, and positioning of elements. The student was pleased with the first poster but felt the second needed more polish to look professional. They aimed to create a few high-quality posters rather than many average ones.
Obsession Test Poster
The document describes the process of creating a movie poster mockup. It discusses choosing fonts, finding online images, conducting a photoshoot with adjustments to lighting and using a hat, cropping and editing the photos, adding text elements, and blending the image into the background to create a sense of the character hiding in darkness. The goal was to experiment with techniques that could be applied to the final poster design.
Image manipulation- Clara Barroso
Clara Barroso took a portrait photograph of a child at sunset in Portugal to use as the main image for her film poster. She used Lightroom to add a filter and adjust the image. However, the photograph was a portrait orientation and she needed a landscape version. So in Photoshop, she edited the portrait photograph to transform it into a landscape version for the film poster by cropping parts of the sun and child's body and using various tools while trying not to overedit the image.
Production Reflection(1)
Erin focused on photo editing and design work for their fanzine in Week 1. They experimented with Lightroom and Photoshop's camera raw filter to edit photos and adjust colors. Erin also selected a font family and compiled potential cover photos. In subsequent days, Erin continued photo editing, took inspiration from photographer Damon Baker for black and white photos, and started page layouts. Areas for improvement included incorporating more advanced editing effects. Overall, Erin was pleased with edits made to castle photos that made details stand out more.
What have I learnt about technologies from the process of creating Bezerk?
The document discusses the author's experience learning and using Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, and improving photography skills for a school magazine production. The author gained experience with new Photoshop text and selection tools, learned InDesign for page layout, and overcame challenges shooting in low light by adjusting camera settings like shutter speed and ISO. Backlit photography was also a new technique explored through test shoots.
Shooting schedule
This document is a shooting schedule for a student film project titled "The Mortal Harrowing". It details 3 shots to be filmed on different dates and locations. Each entry lists the shot number and description, location, crew members and their roles, required equipment, and props/costumes. It also provides some initial editing decisions for each shot.
Recce
A recce is conducted to scout potential filming locations and assess their suitability. Three locations were considered:
RAF North Witham - An abandoned building with two floors that could work for interior shots. It has less permission issues and isn't too far away. Additional lighting may be needed.
RAF Upwood - An open location with props but requires permission as it is used for paintball. It is farther away and lacks woods for other scenes.
Nene Park Academy - The most suitable as it allows easy access for crew and equipment. Scenes could focus on dialogue. It has a hall with a piano that could be filmed quickly. A backup abandoned building is also nearby.
Audience feedback
1. The document appears to be the results of a questionnaire about a movie trailer and magazine advertising campaign. It includes respondents' demographic information, ratings of different elements of the trailer and magazine, and suggestions for improvements.
2. Results showed that cinematography, creatures, plot, sound effects, and acting in the trailer were generally well-liked. Some respondents felt the lighting and creature movements could be improved. Most understood the plot clearly.
3. When asked about the magazine and poster, most respondents said they would be intrigued by the poster and tempted to read the magazine, and felt the advertising elements worked well together. Suggestions focused on design elements like colors and images.
Script2
Mario attends a therapy session to discuss strange events he's been experiencing after taking an unknown drug at a party. He describes hallucinations of grotesque creatures and waking up in unfamiliar places. The therapist suggests his drug abuse is causing hallucinations and impairing his grasp on reality. Mario is increasingly paranoid and terrified, believing the hallucinations are taking over. In the final scenes, he sees a ghostly figure of a girl without eyes following him in the dark, leaving him unsure of what is real.

- Costumes or makeup could potentially cause allergic reactions. Materials will be tested in advance.
- Falls could occur from equipment, uneven surfaces or long costumes. Care will be taken and spills cleaned promptly.
- Temporary blindness or burns are risks from overly bright lighting. Models will take
Film poster inspirations
The document discusses three different movie posters:
1) A psychological thriller poster featuring a close-up of a female character with no emotion and quotes from critics.
2) A poster for a film about PTSD that features a blurred and difficult to read image of a terrified protagonist with an open mouth.
3) A poster for a film about narcissistic personality disorder clearly showing a protagonist holding a knife with the text "killer looks", exploring the disorder.
Magazine textual analysis
The document analyzes the design elements of several magazine covers. Key elements like the masthead, cover lines, images, and pricing are intentionally designed to attract readers' attention in certain ways. For example, cover lines on the left side use thicker fonts to catch the eye first, and mastheads stand out using vibrant colors against dark backgrounds. Main images feature popular celebrities to increase sales. Overall the document discusses how magazine layout, color schemes, text treatments, and featured content are carefully crafted to guide readers' eyes and maximize interest in purchasing the magazines.
Inspirational magazine covers
The document discusses magazine cover designs that the author finds inspiring. For the first cover, the main points are the expression of the main character, the blue, red and yellow color palette, and the bold masthead. Extra photos and yellow highlighted text are also noted. For the second cover discussed, bigger text makes it appealing and busy. Placing the masthead behind the character makes them pop out. The cover lines are on both sides and photos at the bottom clearly show the magazine contents.
Illicit Obsession: New Theatrical Poster - The Process
1. The document describes the process of redesigning a theatrical movie poster.
2. The new poster layout features the antagonist dominating one side and the four protagonists overlapped on the other side to establish their roles.
3. Additional elements were added, including smoke, text effects, pills and cocaine imagery behind the title to imply themes of addiction and intrigue audiences.
Film posters – purpose and effect
This poster features the Marvel logo to promote Thor: The Dark World because it relates to the comic book character Thor. It lists popular actors to attract fans and places the lead actor's name first.
It promotes the Bollywood film Raanjhanaa by featuring the director of the popular film Tanu Weds Manu to appeal to existing fans. It highlights the producer credits to draw attention.
For Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, it promotes the director of the highly rated Run Lola Run but does not name them, instead focusing on the bestselling novel and movie title. Mentioning the previous film aims to attract its audience.

Advantages and Disadvantages
The document compares and contrasts different places for advertising films, including cinemas, bus stops, magazines, and billboards. Cinemas provide large, high-quality screens to captive audiences but can be expensive with competition from other trailers. Bus stops allow targeting audiences like students and elderly but people may ignore ads. Magazines provide international reach but ads get ignored and there is competition. Billboards have large, eye-catching images but targeting specific audiences is difficult and they are costly to produce.
Evaluation Question 1 (Ancillary Tasks)
The document discusses the design elements of promotional materials created for a film project. It summarizes how the magazine cover and poster were designed to echo similar elements and clearly represent the roles of characters. While some conventions were followed, unconventional design choices were made as well. For the magazine cover, the antagonist was featured more prominently than protagonists. The poster layout positioned characters in a triangle formation but featured a dominant antagonist staring at the camera. Small images of drugs were also included to further indicate the theme of illegality. Overall, the materials were meant to be attention-grabbing while challenging some crime genre conventions.
Critical Perspectives A2 Exam

Genre 2015 lesson 1
Genres are ways of categorizing and organizing different types of texts to simplify the mass of available information for both audiences and producers. They create order and appeal to our need to organize chaos. Genres are categories based on common textual elements that attempt to structure some order into the wide range of circulating cultural texts. All genres have sub-genres that divide them into more specific categories, and texts can also evidence hybridity by combining elements of two or more genres. Hybridity and sub-genres allow audiences to identify texts through their familiar and recognizable genre characteristics.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Magazine front cover
- 1. MAGAZINE FRONT COVERBY DOMINIKA MALINA
- 2. STEP ONE: PHOTOGRAPHS Original Tonemapped Out of 47 photographs to choose from I’ve selected two that would mostly fit my magazine idea and were slightly scary to look at. I told the model to look serious as it matches with the model of the magazine I was inspired from which is the Empire magazine specifically from August 2008 (Harry Potter themed). Since I wanted the image to look scary, I needed to add more blue tones and make the overall background darker. Therefore, I have used a programme called Photomatix which is specifically designed for HDR. It is a programme that specialises in this section more than Photoshop. I’ve opened Photomatix through a programme called Adobe Photoshop Bridge which allowed me to efficiently locate, organize, browse, preview, and batch process my context files. By right-clicking the wanted photograph, I could open it in various other programmes. Once I opened Photomatix, I used specific filters called ‘Tonemapping’ in order to make the background darker, without making the image overly exposed and not lose it’s quality, this technique saved me a lot of time.
- 3. STEP TWO: DIFFERENT CHOSEN PHOTOGRAPH Original Tonemapped & Photo-shopped However, the first image that I’ve chosen to process wasn’t exactly what I wanted. Therefore, I went back to my photographs and found another image that matches more with my original idea. I like this photograph a lot more because the posture is more confident and her Eyes look significantly more fierce. I’ve done the same process using Photomatix to ‘Tonemap’ this image making the background a lot darker. Then, I proceeded to open the saved (Tonemapped) photograph as a JPG and opened it in Photoshop. In Photoshop, I’ve darkened the background further using a blend mode layer set on ‘Multiply’. On her face, I smoothened some harsh shadows made by the studio light using a blending brush and made her eye colour a lot stronger using an ‘Overlay’ layer and a soft brush. Finally, I’ve used an adjustment setting called ‘Colour Balance’ to make the image more blue and purple by adjusting the colour sliders.
- 4. STEP THREE: TITLE & FEATURES Then, I’ve placed a big and bold magazine title behind the model by erasing some parts of the layer making the image a lot more noticeable as if the model is standing in front of the text. The yellow bar on the right side was inspired by the same ‘Empire’ magazine I’ve stated previously. The yellow bar brings attention to the ‘Features’. Many film magazines have sub-images of other films to show that they are also reviewed within the magazine. I wanted to replicate that in order to make my magazine look busier, therefore I used some personal photography. At first the low quality photograph didn’t look professional so I’ve removed it and found some high quality photographs I’ve taken that match the mood of the magazine. Overall, this magazine has a Title, Headline, Features, Main Image, Sub-Images, Barcode, Issue Number, Date and a Tagline.
