What have you learnt about technologies from
the process of constructing this product?
I had never used Blogger before this
project, but this was to be the means through
which I was to display my work and media
products created throughout this project.
Confusing to start with, I quickly learnt how to
properly use Blogger and became confident in
using it to display my work. While it would not
have been my first choice to use, after this
project I would definitely use it again for similar
circumstances.
This was the website I used most out of all. Here I uploaded my
photographs, media products etc. and then transferred them to this
blog, or used Flickr to annotate them. Free and easy to get to grips with, Flickr was most definitely one of the most helpful technologies in
this project.
The program I used most out of all, I used Photoshop to edit and create all of my media products, including my
preliminary and my finished ones. Having used
Photoshop several times before, I was confident in using
it and found it easy to use to create my media
products. Equipped with a wide array of tools and using a few tutorials I found online, I felt confident that I could
create professional looking products with Photoshop.
I had never used Survey Monkey before this
project, but when presented with it, I found it
immensely helpful and easy to use. Being able to
create a survey in 10 minutes, distribute it in 5
minutes, and receive answers instantly, telling me
what people expected in a music magazine helped
shape my own magazine accordingly. If I need to
create another survey in the future, I shall definitely
be using Survey Monkey.
Slideshare is a free online service that allows users to upload presentations, like this one, onto the site to share
with others online. I have never used slideshare before this
project, but found it easy to get to grips with and use. I will
most likely use this software again in the future for other
projects.
Overall, I have used a wide array
of different technologies for this
project. I have learnt how to use a
new set of technologies while
becoming more adept and
confident in technologies I was
already familiar with.
