This document summarizes the key technologies and techniques learned from creating a product in Photoshop, including: 1) Using the marquee tool to outline an image and then transforming it to make it smaller or larger and rotate it. 2) Applying transformations to images to reshape, rotate, move, and place them in the desired location over other elements. 3) Using the magic wand tool to select and highlight backgrounds, then deleting to make the background transparent. 4) Employing the paint bucket tool to change the color of backgrounds, such as making a background dark grey.

1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the making of this
product?
Evaluation question 6

2. This shows me adding a rectangle into a canvas on Photoshop.

3. This shows me after dragging one of my front cover drafts onto my canvas. I have then chosen to
marquee tool to outline the image, and then I’m am going to ‘free transform’ my image. This will allow
me to make the image smaller or larger and to rotate it.
First making of-

4. I then apply the transformation after I have reshaped, rotated, moved and placed the
image in the correct place that I want it to be over the previously placed rectangle.

5. This shows the final product after rearranging it.

6. This is the original image that I am wanting to get rid of the background of. To do this I will have to make
the background transparent. This image shows me choosing the Magic Wand tool, which I will chose to
highlight the background.
Second making of-

7. This shows me clicking on the background where the Magic Wand tool has
highlighted. I then clicked the delete button which allowed me to get rid of the
background, making it transparent. It appears white as I have the colour of the
background set to white.

8. Finally, this image shows me using the Paint Bucket tool to make the background of the image a
dark grey. I have done this by changing the colour of the background to grey with the tool. There
are some little bits which haven’t changed to dark grey, which I will delete and make dark grey.
