Induction evaluation

Some of the skills that I have gained from being in this media class are some camera skills I have learned how to focus a camera this is where you turn the front of the camera the smallest ring so that the camera can become focused on the persons face you do this is your camera is on manual. I have also learned how to zoom on the camera that I was using you turn it anticlockwise so that you can zoom and you turn it clockwise so that you can zoom out. I have also learned how to stand when I am holding the camera and this is called the T-stance where you put your feet in a triangle position so you have more balance and can maneuver better. When I was taking the pictures I also learned about some lighting that the light had to be at the left side of us so that it would be a better picture.

When it came to Photoshop I have learned a lot of new skills that I can use for next time I learned things like that I should always keep the original photo that I taken and use a copy for my Photoshop in case something goes wrong. In Photoshop I learned to make your picture larger without messing with the quality and I learned how to do this by pressing command plus T and then you hit enter.  To enlarge it you have to hold down the shift key while dragging the Connors out. I also learned how to put rulers in so that they act as your margins, to get rulers you press command and R so that the rulers will appear and you drag them where you want them.

  When it came to text I learned where the FX button was and how I can put different effect on text I learned how to put shadow on and a bevel I did these things to sometimes emphasize words to show the importance of them and I would also use FX to make the text look better so it wasn’t dull and boring. I had to a barcode on my front cover, so I had to go to the internet and save an image of one that I later on added to my front cover I had to use command T to make it smaller and move it to the Connor of my front cover. For the color scheme of the name of my cover I used a dark red colour that was outlined with black to make it bold and purple is more of a female colour so its attracts them and purple can be connoted as sophisticated. 

Looking at my front cover there is something that I would like to improve like making some of the headlines stand out more look more appealing I also would have added more colour to it to draw in the audience and to brighten up there opinion of the magazine because the one I have made looks to dull. I would have also made the text bigger and use a different font for each headline and use colors that match what the text is saying for example you would use red if you were talking about love.

My front cover also has some strength in it as well where that I actually put alliteration or that I had a question to get the audience thinking about their lives and wanting to read more. I was able to also put some FX on some of the headlines I put in that showed it was important and something that the audience would like to read
