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

Programs that I learnt to use to evaluate and create my magazine where flickr, blogger and photo shop. Photo shop was the main programme that I learnt a lot of new skills from because it was a lot of editing for the magazine itself so I had to edit things myself learning how to change the balance of the image and the saturation in different places. Also I learnt how to use different shots with a camera using mid shots and some close ups. This gave me more knowledge and gave me a chance to ry out different images to take to try and get this professional and good image for my magazine. I learnt on where to take a good picture too and what things I need to think about when taking a picture like for a single portrait image it look professional to have a clear and single colour background and then thinking about the lighting positioning and how to take the image maybe thinking about exposure time to let more let in etc. Flickr was a good website for my coursework because it allowed me to analyse my work with ease giving me the abillity to point at the things that i was annotating. It also gives good organisation with my work with it being annotated and stored onto this wesbite giving the ability for others to see and comment on my work. The disadvange of flickr is that you are restricted on what you can do as on other programmes to develop and fully annotate your work. It makes your work look proffesional but again lacks the abillity on what you can do on the website. Blogger and flickr are similar they give this professional aspect to your work with you being able to state and annotate work but you can do much things on the websites than other sources. However, on blogger you can write a full anaylsis of the work instead of just putting noted to anaylse certain parts. Blogger also gives this documentation view making it look a differnt type proffesionalism to the work.
