What have you learnt about technologies from the process

constructing the product?

EVALUATION QUESTION 6

For my images, I used both the DSLR camera provided by the school and Sony HD camera that I own. For my front cover image, contents and double page spread I used the Sony HD camera and the DSLR for one of my artists on my contents page. By using these cameras I could gain the high quality

pictures that these cameras take because the quality can show professionalism in my product. When taking my shots I learned that angles

would matter because it could show status or meaning towards the person of who you are taking a shot of. For my front cover image I took a mid, low angle

shot to show how my model is feeling and how powerful he is in terms of lyrics. I did not use flash but with my artist ‘Tjay’ I would use lighting shining

form the bottom of his face which would create some shade on his head.

PROCESS TO CREATING MY PRODUCT (PHOTOGRAPHY)

In order to get some fonts I found a few websites online to download and use. I used Dafont.com to download my

masthead of Central on my front cover. As Photoshop does not have unique fonts, I had to use some online to find the

right font that would go on in my magazine. This font is specifically called ‘Campus A’. For my images I enhanced

the quality through pixlr.com which I sued with all my images. I used pixlr express which was more simple and

easier to use.

WEBSITE’S USED THROUGH PRODUCTION

Programs that I have used was Adobe Photoshop, to place my image in place and use the effect which I would use in my final products. Mostly for this program it was to do my final step to making my media products, to construct the

front cover, double page spread and contents page.

POST PRODUCTION

I have used blogger which is the blog which allows people to see my work, especially the students in my class to see my progress and those who want

to preview my work. For my research such as genre I used online presentations programs like Prezi. To gain results for a questionnaire I used survey monkey which I could send my survey to people in a certain category or sending it through email. Most of my posts on my blog are

posted just on the blog itself without using any other web applications. For my evaluation I have used different applications to present my questions

such as slide share, Moovly, YouTube etc. Using these different software's would present my work at a high standard.
