What have you learnt about technologies from the process of
constructing this product?

To construct my magazine I used many technologies, including a Nikon camera, Photoshop and other photo editing applications/software. I used the camera to photograph the images for my magazine, using the rule of thirds I made sure that my images were to scale before taking them and I made sure to take a couple of the same shot encase of any blur or problems with the original image.

I then used an application to give my main cover image a filter, this made the images looked unique and stylish. After the filter was used on my images, I picked out the best ones that would attract the target audience. With the chosen image I then used photoshop. From this I had also added extra filters to suit the genre of the magazine, enhancing the eye colour on my model to make it look fresh and different.

I then continued to use the magic wand tool that cut the image out automatically. From this, the image has began to show pixelation. To fix this, I used the blur tool to blend out the skin to make is look smoother. I made sure to blur the outer edges of the hair so they didn't look jagged and badly edited. 

I used these techniques many times throughout the possess of constructing my magazine to keep the theme flowing on each page. The text was used by photoshop as well as it was only a simple text that I needed. All the fonts used were from the photoshop software.
