Photoshop
Using Photoshop I learnt how to use the quick selection tool to cut around the images I wanted on my front cover. I also learnt how to put the layers in different orders in order to over lap the main sell line over the main image. An other thing I learnt was how to make the masthead stand out more by adding a drop shadow and changing the distance, spread and size.
In Design
Using In Design I learnt how to use the rectangle frame tool to place images I wanted onto the contents page and the double page spread. I also learnt to use different text boxes for the articles in order to make the double page spread more organised.
Final Cut
Using Final Cut I learnt how to import different images so that I could use them in the video. I also learnt how to vary the length of each image and text in the sequence so people watching the video have enough time to look and read the image or text. Another thing I learnt is how to change the text by going onto the 'controls' section and typing in the text box and changing the font, size, alignment and style of the text.
Prezi
Using Prezi I learnt how to use paths to link text to the appropriate image in order to make my presentation more organised. I also learnt how to crop an image so I could focus on a certain section of the picture. Another thing I learnt was how to group images together so I could talk about a group of different things at one time.
Slideshare
Using Slidedshare I learnt how to upload a powerpoint I could upload one powerpoint or many powerpoints at one time. I only need to upload one. Slideshare enabled me to upload my powerpoint onto my blog which I would not have been able to do if I had not uploaded it onto Slideshare.
Macs
Using a Mac I learnt how to find the different programmes like Photoshop, InDesign and Final Cut which I . I also learnt how to use those progragmmes. I also learnt how to print screen using Grab. Grab is a programme on a mac that allowed me take a screen shot of my work.
