Question 6 – What have about learned about technologies from the process of constructing this product? During the construction of my media product I used various technologies to help me. To take photos of the band for my magazine, I used a Nikon D5100. This was a good camera to use as it lets you adjust the focus and aperture whilst you are taking the photos. I used my mobile phone, a HTC Desire S, to take the photos at the All Time Low gig. The camera on this phone is very good and easy to use as it is a handheld device. I edited my photos in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to make them clearer and I made my front cover in Photoshop CS5. I used different tools in Photoshop such as the Quick Selection tool and Refine Edge to individually move and adjust each person in my photos and make the edges smooth when I cut them out. I also used the Magic Wand tool to remove the background of my images in one click. I have used this software before in the past and I found it very easy to use. I recorded all of my work on Blogger which allowed me to keep everything together and have a risk of losing it. I find that Blogger is very easy to use as I am used to blogging sites like Tumblr. I used a site called SlideShare to upload my PowerPoint slides onto my blog. Again, this is a very simple site to use and because I have experience with HTML codes, I found it easy to attach my PowerPoint onto my blog.
