Evaluation, Question 6

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

The skills i have learnt from the project on photography is what to have the model wearing, where they should be standing, if i need a shadow or the lighting of where they are standing. These are all valuable points that i need to take into consideration as they could make or break the photo, because the colours of the clouthes could wash out your skin colouring or if you stand in the wrong place you can't change the background to whatever you want.

The skills i learnt whilst i was using photoshop i learnt how to cut out a person and not having the background so you can place them anywhere and not take the background aswell. Also on InDesign i used the guide lines which helped with my layout out on my double page so it looks neater and more proffessional.

The tricky challege's that i had to over come was that i didn't have the text that i wanted so i had go on to the internet and download a text that i used. Another problem which i found whilst making my contents pages was that i needed to decide how many photo's to have on it, i wanted a main one but i didn't know how many small ones to have around it or next to it, to decide i looked at other magazine contents pages and based mine on them.

The technologies which i used for this was the macs with photoshop, Indesign and Illistrator. Also i used my camera to take the photo's which i used for the magazine, i used the computers to chose which photo's were appropriate and which ones were not right for the style of the magazine.
