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

Before I started the product I had used photo shop but not nearly to the extent that i had to learn in order to create my music magazine. I have learned alot about photography through taking the pictres and getting the lighting exactly right in order for it to look proffesional. During the construction of my magazine I took alot of differant pictures to check what would work on my front cover, contents and double page spread.

I learned to use photo shop and all its tools to cut out and tweek my pictures to the way I wanted them. I was also able re-arrange my magazine to make it more to the conventions of music magazine.
Through out the process of making my magazine I have learned on a bigger scale how magazines are made and distributed through out the industry.

I have used the internet to research different magazines already out there and differant magazine companies. By using the companies already on the net, I was able to use the internet to learn more about distributers and how they work. I was able to get hold of NME magazines to get a better idea of the conventions that I can encorporate into my magazine.
