Question 6
The document discusses various technologies used to construct an Origin magazine, and what was learned from using each one. Photoshop was used to edit photos and the author learned how to better edit photos using tools and adjustments. InDesign was used for layouts and the author learned to properly use layers to organize elements. Illustrator was used to design the logo and the author learned how to make the logo bold and simple. Blogger, Prezi, SlideShare and Timetoast were used at different stages of planning and tracking progress on the magazine. Photography equipment like DSLR cameras and soft boxes were used to take high quality photos for the magazine.
(3) production experiments
Erin Stephenson experimented with designing magazine covers and double page spreads for a gardening magazine. For the cover, they focused on keeping it simple with minimal text and a central image as the main focal point. They explored different text effects and framing. For the double page spread, they worked on framing and aligning text, which was difficult at first but improved with practice. In their reflections, they noted elements they would include in the final product, such as considering the relationship between text and images, layout, and readability of fonts.
3. production experiments
The document describes Jessica Crosland's process of recreating the cover of a fishing magazine using Photoshop as an experiment. She began by opening Photoshop and selecting the page size to match a magazine. She then added a background image and fonts to match the original magazine cover. While she found adding text and changing colors easy, she struggled with layout and cropping fonts. In the end, the recreated cover turned out well but she notes areas for improvement like taking more time and choosing a more challenging example. For her final product, she plans to apply lessons learned like using the correct page size, finding fonts and colors, including a main background image, and creating a layout plan.
