2. IMPROVEMENT OF
PHOTOGRAPHY SKILLS
During my production, my
photography skills have
improved as I have been
experimenting with different
angles and shots which are
more conventional, and also
using more mise-en-scene which
has improved also as I have
managed to use settings which
are conventional of the rock
genre. I took many photos which
enabled me to have variety in my
photos.
3. MY PHOTO EDITING
SKILLS HAVE IMPROVED
Also in my production, I had to edit
photos to make them more
conventional, I edited them in
several ways, ways such as
cropping and adding filters which
make it fit into the rock genre and
allow the photos to appeal to my
target audience. I used 3 photo
editing programmes, Adobe
Fireworks, Adobe Photoshop and
Microsoft Publisher. These
programmes allowed me to edit my
photos to make them as
conventional as possible.
4. MY TYPOGRAPHY SKILLS
HAVE IMPROVED
As a result of my production, I have
managed to use conventional fonts
which have enabled my magazine to be
conventional and appealing to my
target audience. I used two websites
which have a wide range of fonts, the
fonts have allowed me to display an
aggressive mode of address which is
what I aimed for as it is conventional of
the rock genre. The two websites were
– www.dafont.com and
www.fontspace.com
