1. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
2. Adobe audition Once an audio file was recorded I would use this software to help edit and take out bits of the voice clip that are not needed. This allowed me to upload files and pieces which were only sufficient to my work cutting out all pieces which where not needed.
3. Adobe Photoshop Cs5 Adobe Photoshop CS5 allows you to play around with images allowing you to edit them. I found this very useful as it helped me with most of the process of creating the front cover, contents page and double page spread. This was the first time I had used this programmed allowing me to build up my knowledge on editing. This software was the most useful software as it allowed me to take away and put images together as well as text.
4. Edirol Dictaphone This device allowed me to record voices of which I would get feedback, I had used this to get feed back on what I should name my magazine and how the cover should be. This was useful as I did not have to type up anything just load it onto the computer and then blog using div share. This is built in with a microphone, allowing the voices to be recorded.
5. Div Share Divshare is an online website which allows you to upload voice notes and documents, I used to this to upload my interviews on the idea of my magazine. To this u need a microphone, in which I had the Dictaphone, both being useful, this is the most popular device that allows you to upload voice notes. Due to this my work was made a lot easier as then I would have to type up what was said in the interviews.
6. Blogger Blogger is a online site which allows u to publish work and other things, I had used blogger to upload my work onto the internet. Blogger was easy to use, and also safe as the work would not get deleted once uploaded, it saves time as generally everything would have to be typed up and handed in this was a new way of handing in work for me.
7. Edexcel This is a spread sheet database, it allows you to create graphs and is useful for subjects such as maths, I have used this software many times before, from this I created the graphs which were based on the questionnaire this allowed me to get a clear indication of what the audience wanted being very useful.
8. Slide share allows you to upload power points/slide shows. Which is similar to divshare. Without this I would not have been able to upload presentations relating to my work, I have used this in several places for my work an example would be the rejected images. This website allows me to upload work onto blogger instead of having to make it look like I used the same type of written essays throughout.
