The document discusses using Photoshop to edit pictures for a magazine. It describes using an HD camera to take clear pictures and then editing them in Photoshop by cropping unneeded parts and adjusting brightness, contrast and effects. It also mentions using filters to enhance pictures and formatting text by changing size, color and effects to make elements like the masthead stand out. Overall, Photoshop allowed flexible editing and layout of magazine elements.
Simple overview for creating art in Photoshop.
Photoshop lends itself to drawing and colouring with a variety of brush effects and be ability to layer and collage scanned or drawn items.
I would recommend drawing with a Wacom tablet or similar drawing tablet rather than a computer mouse to avoid muscle fatigue.

1. We used Photoshop to create our magazine pages
HD/Digital camera: The HD camera made my
pictures clear, and it made it easy to edit the
picture . But If I used an old camera ,I would not be
able to edit the pictures. When I uploaded the
pictures on to Photoshop I was able to crop the
pictures . The reason why I did this was because I
needed to cut out bits that I did not need; I was
also able to change the pictures’ contrast,
brightness, and even add effects to change the
way the pictures looked.

2. I used photo shop to manipulate images. I did this by going to Filter -
> Enhance; this was very usefully because I wanted to make my
pictures look very realistic.
Text/shapes colour: you can increase the size of a text box and the
text itself or you can choose to decrease the text box. And you could
change the colour of the font which made things very interesting
because there were so many colours that you could choose from.
Apply an effect to the masthead: I specially used this because I
wanted my masthead to stand out. Using/choosing the effect itself
takes some time to find out. I went through a process to find the right
effect. It needed to pass all the requirements which is that it needed
to be eye catching, bright and clear.
Photoshop helped me to play with the layout, this made it easy
because I could decide where I wanted to place elements of my
magazine. It helped me to move the masthead around and decide
where I needed to put my data and barcode, either on the top or
bottom

4. Contrast is the amount of light that reflects in a picture. I apply this onto
my work making a picture either brighter or darker.
5. Crop means to take out part that you do not need. In
my work I have cut out the parts that I did not need
6. Fuji camera - allowed me to take more
interesting pictures
I used the schools computer and USB cable to
transfer my pictures onto the computer, to then
be edited and manipulated
7. . The main purpose of using Prezi was to
present part of my evaluation.
Prezi is distinguished by its Zooming User
