Evaluation Q. 6

Q. What have you learnt about technologies from teh process of constructing this product?
A.Things used to complete my product: InDesign, Photoshop, Canon Camera, And I attempted slideshare but that didn't work as it kept crashing my computer so Word Powerpoint was what I had to use.
I had tons of difficulties with technology while working on this. I couldnt upload things and the internet was moody for a while.
Working with InDesign was a very interesting experience as it enabled me to do tasks that would have been complicated quite simple really. Tasks like uploading a picture to the page and then putting colored text in a particular font over it. I used this for the majority of the magazine work. You can use layers on indesign which really helped to keep the layers of the magazine organized.






Using Photoshop was nice to be able to change things so easily from black and white and back to color and change the exposure and such. As well as cutting out Siobhan (main image) from the nasty background I ended up having her on for those images.  


I loved getting to use the macs that we were assigned to do our work. All of the programs were on here. They were a bit difficult to use at first because I had never used one. But once I got the hang of the basics (command key and what control does and doesnt do as well).






Whether no one could help me or people didn't have time, internet surfing made my project much easier and my product much more realistic. I had to use youtube, and google as well as blogspot to help find all the information on my magazine.
