I used a variety of technologies including a digital SLR camera, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft PowerPoint, and websites like Google, Blogspot, and Scribd to create a music magazine. While I had some experience with the camera, Photoshop, and PowerPoint, creating the magazine presented new challenges in editing photos, laying out pages, and using websites like Blogspot. Through this process, I learned how important technology is and gained new skills, but using different technologies effectively for a project took time to learn how to use each program or website.

What have you learnt about technologies from
the process of constructing this product? I used a wide variety of different technologies to help me with my project. For example: Digital Camera Adobe Photoshop Microsoft Office PowerPoint Internet Explorer, which enabled me to access: Goggle, Blogspot, dafont.com, Scribd and magazine websites. I used a digital slr camera to take the pictures used in my magazine. I have used a digital camera before so had some experience and knowledge. Using this camera with the knowledge helped produce some quality pictures. Using the camera I took different shots angles making more variety to choose from. I thought about the models body language and body position therefore what angles and shots to take pre hand so I knew exactly what I was doing with the camera. I took all my pictures using a backdrop and lighting which I had basic knowledge on.
I also had knowledge in using Photoshop so I was comfortable
using this programme. Photoshop has many different tools and effects available but I still found it quite difficult as I have never made a magazine before. I found it easier to edit my photos but slightly struggled to put all the images and texts together on the page. The edits made in Photoshop made the quality of the magazine better and more appealing overall, which resulted in producing a better music magazine. I have never used Blogspot before therefore It was all very new and I had to stick to the basics when using it and learn as I went along. Blogspot helped me personally record and present my whole project. I was able to present my final pieces and show the development and process along the way. www.asjodibraceycabot.blogspot.com
I used the Google to find information
and research on different magazines or any other information I needed to know throughout the project. On PowerPoint I could record and present any information needed for my project.
For every presentation I used on
PowerPoint I uploaded it onto Scribd which I could then put onto my personal blogger. Its quick and easy to use so it was very helpful throughout my project. I have learnt how vital technology is throughout my project. I have learnt new skills along the way of developing my project. Technology can improve qualities and how you present things, which makes it more personal and creative. Technology can make things easier but knowing how to use the technology can be a difficult experience as there is so much to learn.
