This document is a report for a photography and graphic design project. The goal was to take photos around Eccles Sixth Form College and edit them for use in a magazine. The student took photos of different areas around the college, then edited 5 photos by removing distractions, adding filters, adjusting lighting and cropping. The appropriate file formats of JPEG, PNG and PSD are discussed. Copyright issues are also addressed, noting that the student's edited photos can be used since they were taken and edited by the student. In conclusion, the student believes the edited photos meet the client's needs by making changes to 5 images while keeping a high quality and promoting the location of Salford City College.
