Re-sit Changes

Other than making new products, i changed a few things on my blog. The only things i changed were several of the evaluation questions

I did these questions in reference to my new products, the evaluations would not have been of any use if they were evaluating my previous product, therefore i did them again evaluation my NEW re-sit product.

Final Post

Evaluation Question 7



Construction









As you can see, there is a huge difference between my prelim task and my finished product. 
The photos in my prelim task are fairly blurred and out of focus, however, on my final product, every photo is picture perfect thanks to my research into photography which gave me the knowledge on how to adjust such things as; Shutter speed and aperture. 
My skill development in using software and hardware also had a dramatic improvement on my product in comparison to my prelim task. Photoshop in particular has had the biggest impact on my work. I learnt how to adjust images, use fonts and brushes which allowed me to add and manipulate many elements of my product which gave me a lot more freedom to do thing which i wanted. without these skills, i could only do the simple things which is evident in my prelim and the lack of colours, fonts and other effects evident in my final product. My new learnt ability to add different effects to my product meant that i was able to add a lot more detail and pin point small details of my product and change them and this mixed with my Research allowed me to change and manipulate thing to help attract my target audience

Other pieces of software like InDesign allowed me to make my product a lot better and match a professional standard which was a huge improvement from my prelim task. With InDesign, i was able to get help with alignment, text addition(in particular my double page spread) which allowed me to manipulate text and it's placement and again fonts and other effects upon it. In my prelim, all text is the same and in some places, barely visible as it is obstructed by the main image which caused problems and because of my lack of knowledge, i did not really know how to change this. In my final product, all texts are visible clearly and easy to read, all aligned to the right place thanks to InDesign.
