What I have learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product - Manga Studio Debut 4

Although I didn't directly use this program in the construction of my magazine, I used it quite a lot to edit fonts and create artwork for one of my secondary artists - Haunted Parade. With this program, I also used a bamboo drawing tablet. I learnt a lot about using layers through the use of this program, which in turn helped in Photoshop. Below is a sped up video of the colouring process.

What I have learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product - Adobe Indesign

Adobe indesign was a completely new program to me, so at first it was slightly difficult getting used to all the tools and features. After a while though I got used to it as it is easy and simple to use to create what I wanted. Although a lot of the tools are similar to what I am used to in photoshop, there are lots of extra features that made it easier create the magazine. Below is a video of some of the tools that I used.

What I have learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product - Photoshop

Throughout the process of producing my magazine, I have developed and built on the skills I had learnt in using Photoshop in my preliminary task. Below I have made a video about the magic wand tool which I used and developed on to make make clean edged images with transparent backgrounds. 

I also used Photoshop to edit my photography, and I learnt quite alot about ways to make the photography better. In particular I learnt about the 'Reduce Noise' filter, which I found really useful when editing my concert photography, as they were taken with a lower quality camera in difficult conditions.
