This is a youtube video of me which explains the things i have learnt.




















To edit and enhance the pictures that i was using for my music magazine i used photoshop. Photoshop is one of the top editing program. This is the first time that i had used photoshop so at first it was difficult to come to terms of how to use the program. One of the main tools that i used on photoshop was the pen tool which is used to cut around a picture and get rid of any things in and around that picture that you would no longer want to be in there. Also the crop tool came in good use when trying to get rid of empty space that i did not want to be in the photograph.

Using indesign was difficult at first as it was the first time i had used this program for anything. It was hard to know what to do at first when i was starting my magazine. When i came to terms with how to use indesign things became easier. The one thing that made an inpact on my double page spread was the text wrap. This made a good effect on my double page spread it gave the people that would be looking at my magazine more to look at and that would be what they looked at straight away. Also on indesign i learnt how to make different background colors for my magazine. Now i know how to use indesign i could design a magazine easily without needing any help or guidance on what to do. 


 Using the mac's was also difficult as this was the first time i had used mac machines. They are completely different to normal computers and work in a completely different way. The different programs on the mac were hard to use at first but when i got used to how it worked it was fine.

Using survey monkey was good as it was something that i had never used before. Also it was a good way to find out the different things that i needed to find out for the planning of my music magazine.

Using blogger was a different experience for me as it is something that i had never done before. It was an easy website to use and to get to terms with using. It is a good way to show your work.
