Evaluation question 6
1. Question 6 What have you learnt
about technologies from the process
of constructing this product?
2. Throughout the my media course I have been able to
effectively learn and adapt to many new technology
skills to design and create unique pieces of work.
Before starting my media course I hadn’t ever used
programs such as Photoshop , Indesgin and
Wordpress .However I am now able to show a
clear understanding of each software to creat a high
quality of work using all the different softwares. On
each of my designs and my blog I tried to use a good
variety of technonlogies.
3. I was firstly introduced to Photoshop at the beginning of the media course. Through the months
of my course I have gained a lot of confidence in using this particular software. With what I
have posted on my blog I learnt how to edit pictures and texts, this helped me to decide what
images and tects I prefered because
I kept changing it.
I feel as though i gained knowledge in
editing particular aspects of the texts
through drop shadowing, inner shadowing,
stroking and adding texture. When using photoshop I began to learn how to layer up my
documents and how to change the layering. Whilst using photoshop I stumbled on the problem
of saving documents, because I couldn’t post a PDF file on my blog. However I soon discovered
that you had to save the document as a Jpeg so that I coud post it on my blog. Photoshop was a
great way for me to produce a unique and exciting front cover that as of a high quality.
4. I have also been able to develop my I.T skills further by using the blog
on ‘wordpress’. WordPress was a completely new blogging website
to me which we were introduced to at the beginning of our course.
On wordpress I learnt how to create tags in posts, how to insert links
to various other websites into posts, how to insert pictures and
create polls for information. Wordpress was alos I great way to
communicate with others to get their responses and thoughts on my
magazine. Using ‘wordpress’ to blog all the processes in creating my
magazine really helped as I was able to keep up to date with all my
work. Every time I finished something or made another version of my
work I could post it and get people’s ideas and thoughts on how
effective it was. I’m able to demonstrate the different processes I
took to create my magazine through the various posts.
5. I also used ‘InDesign’ I used this to create my contents
page and double page spread. With indesign I also
learnt how to put my photos into the document, I
learnt how to layer the document and change my
layers. By using InDesign it allowed me to continue to
create my magazine pages for my target audience
with exciting colour and persicion.
6. Overall, I feel as though I have learnt how to use many
new technologies, I also feel as though I have learnt
and the skills it takes to use them properly and how to
make them complement each other. Although at first I
found the programmes quite complex after a lot of
practisicing and trial and error it allowed me to gain
confidence and feel more confident when desgining
my magazine for my audience.
