- 3. Photoshop ing Photoshop, I have used of different tools to be able my product. In my ary task, I learnt how to use h as the move tool, the ol, the magic wand tool and e tool. I also used other tools he text tool which allowed ite my text vertically and ally to give my magazine a nality. Move tool I used the move tool in my work when I was placing my different items on my magazine as well as moving my images around The selection tool With the selection tool, I was able to select certain parts of my image and I was able to cut it and also move that around using the move tool.Magic Wand tool With the magic wand tool, I was able to select certain parts of my image and I was able to cut it out and then place it elsewhere without a background. For example, I used this for my central image when I cut out my image and put it on a white background. Clone tool I used the clone tool in my work when I wanted to extend my background or make my background all over something. For example, I used this in my preliminary task when creating my school magazine and I used the clone tool to cover up the Little Heath sign on the wall. Text tool I used the text tool to insert text into my magazine. Even though I didn’t use any vertical text, I learnt how to change the different types of text if I wanted to insert them into my magazine.
- 4. Wordpress (The Blog) Throughout my media course, I have used the blog a lot to publish my work. In my preliminary task I learnt how to use a range of tools to publish my work. Add Media Button This is for when I want to add media from my computer onto my blog post. I used this when I wanted to insert my school magazine photos and any other photographs that I may have wanted to put on the blog. Visual text box This is used when wanting to write posts on my blog without any other program involved. I used this for evaluating one of my Prezis The text ‘text’ box This was used when I wanted to embed things from other programs onto my blog. I have used this a lot because I have embedded all sorts of things such as Prezis, YouTube videos and any other presentation software which I have used. Format Box This is used so I was able to insert a different range of media into my blog posts
- 5. Prezi When presenting my work, I have used Prezi a lot as it gives my presentations a lot more edge to it and it is also a lot more original than a plain powerpoint. I have learnt several different tools on Prezi in order to create my content. When I first started this course, I had never heard of Prezi and I wasn’t quite sure on how to use it or how to move anything around so it suited to what I wanted it to be. Now that I have had a lot more experience with Prezi, I am now able to insert photographs and make transitions and backgrounds to make my presentations as interesting as possible.
- 6. Conclusion In conclusion, I have learnt a lot from when I started my preliminary task that I was able to use in the making of my music magazine and in the process of presenting my work. Not only will I be able to use Prezi and other software in the future but I will also be able to use Photoshop to make other products or edit my photographs.
