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

To create my magazine pages I used Photoshop, which I was comfortable with using because of previous practice in class. I worked on the Mac computers. At first it was a bit of a struggle getting used to them Macs as I hadn’t used them before but once I had gained some understanding, I was able to use all the programs that would have helped me. I used my KODAK FUJIFILM 12.2 mega pixel camera, which I used to take the photos that used in my magazine. There were many things that I had to think about when capturing my photos. Location, lighting, model and background are key things I had to think about. I wanted to shoot my photos in different locations to convey more of my need of having a variety. I wanted my photos the give off different elements of interest. My magazine title is called Eccentric Vibesz so in order to live up to that name I would have had to make everything correlate which includes the pictures. My model had a pink belt, which clashed with my theme. So I used photo shop to colour her belt red. Many tools have helped my magazine look far more professional than I would have ever thought. I also used Scribd to download my font for my headlines. This helped me find the perfect font that made my magazine stand out in the way I wanted it to. I feel like all these technologies have given me a great understanding on how the magazine process works. It will also be key things that can be used in the future.
