From the production of my front cover, contents page and double page spread, I have learnt a lot about how developed technology had enabled the process of making magazines to become easier than it has been in the past. Whilst producing my magazine I have taken on many different roles in order to make it work and look proffessional.

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

The roles in which I took on would usually be done by many different people in the media institution, one of the roles was the photographer.

I took the images for the front cover, contents page and double page spread. I took several pictures for each of them to ensure i got the correct picture to make it look professional.

For instance I took several images like these ones for my main image until i felt i got the right one for my front cover

I was also the proof readers, as i read throught the article on my double page spread, the coverlines on my front cover and coverlines on my contents page to check spelling mistakes and grammar.

I also worked as a Journalist as I wrote my article for my double page spread

I worked as a Graphic designer and a layout sub-editor aswell.

Since the start of the media course, I have realised that the work I have produced has improved due becoming more familiar with software such as Photoshop and Quark Express. Whilst using Photoshop when creating my magazine front cover and 'Quark Express' when creating my DPS and contents page, I learnt quite quickly how to use it and also that realistically anybody can use as it is easy to use.

I found Photoshop rather easy to use as it is easily set out with labled tools. I found Photoshop very user friendly and easy to follow.

I found Quark Express slightly difficult to use at first, however once i got the hang of it and became more familiar with it i found it got easier to use and eventfully found it effective. Quark express was user friendly and anybody could use it.

Convergence enabled me to do this as I was able to multi-task with the correct equipment. With the use of Desk Top Publishing I learnt that with the correct software anybody could create a music magazine; giving the audience access to the means of prouduction. With the use of Desk top publishing I would have been able to create my entire music magazine on just one computer along with the correct equipment such as a camera, the software and the computer.

For instance this magazine is a professional magazine and I feel that Desk Top Publishing and the correct software has enabled me to create a similar magazine to this professional magazine. Therefore it is relativley simple to create a magazine which looks as professional as this one and anyone can do it.

Overall I have learnt a lot about technology and how it would not be that difficult to create an entire magazine as previously it may have been very difficult. I feel I have used technology effectivly in order to create a magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread which looks professional.
