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



 Photoshop- front cover
What I learnt/tools I used:

  • I adjusted the hue/ saturation of my images which changed the colour. 
  • I created/ duplicated layers to build up an image. 
  • The magnetic lasso tool allowed me to cut around my image which i used in the first draft of my front cover. 


Indesign- Contents/ double page spread        
What I learnt/tools I used:

  • I used the type tool to create my cover lines, article titles and their numbers, and the main text on my dps. 
  • I changed the opacity of one of my images on the contents page, so I could have it as the background. But I didn't use this for my final draft. 
  • By using text wrap I could have my interview around my pull quotes without interfering. 



Evaluation- How does your media product particular social groups?

Evaluation- How did you attract/address your audience?

Prezi

Before the evaluation questions I hadn't used Prezi. It is hard to use at first but when you get use to all the different tools etc, it becomes easy and allows you to present your coursework in a creative and fun way. 




There are many different tools in Prezi, but here are just a few things you can do:


  • Place arrows, lines and boxes on your Prezi to make it clear and structured. 
  • Add images to your text, so it becomes more visual and enticing.
  • Edit the path of your Prezi, allowing you to put your work in order.
