Evaluation Question 6


The 7 images that I have included on this blog post show all of the physical and digital equipment that I have made use out throughout the production of my magazine.  While all of these pieces of equipment were used at separate times they came together to help create the product. All of these pieces of technology effected my product greatly. Had technology not been so advanced I would have met many problems while producing this magazine.  The technology helped me in the following ways...
·         Taking good quality photos. The camera that I used allowed me to have a good quality image for my magazine which made the product look more professional and appeal more to the audience.
·         Contact models etc. I used facebook to contact the modes that I used in my magazine. This allowed us to have a group conversation regarding outfits and makeup for the photo shoot and made it a lot easier and quicker than having to talk to each model individually.
·         To create the product. I used Photoshop on a mac computer to physically construct my media product. This programme has many different tools that allowed me to create a professional looking product that would appeal to my target audience. This programme also made the process of creating the magazine quick and simple as everything we needed was on one programme.
·         To broadcast my project. Blogger was a great help throughout the making of my product. It helped me to bring together all of my ideas throughout the research and planning stages and was simple to understand which sped the process up massively.
Without the use of technology throughout the making of this product I would not have been able to produce a magazine to the standard that I have done. The process would have took longer and the outcome would not have been as successful. Technology allowed us to showcase our ideas in many different ways which makes the media product more appealing.
