PHOTOSHOP.The main technology that I used was for my front cover, this was to edit the background out and make it black. 1-The first step was to click on the brush tool and select the colour to black.2-The second step was to make the brush to a large size so it is easier and quicker to do the edges.3-The next thing that I did was I went all around my photo with the black brush as close as I could to the main part of the image as I could, I did this with a smaller brush and this allowed me to do a very close neat line and make the editing look a little bit more professional.4-The image is now finished as there is no longer any background it is just black which then fits in with my genre of music. Once I had used photo shop on my picture the only next thing to do it crop the picture and make it fit onto my front cover with the text and other images.Using Photoshop as my main technology has allowed me to edit my photograph with a lot more precision with my editing rather than using something like paint, PowerPoint or any other editing websites.

INSTAGRAMI used Instagram to edit my posters on my front cover, the main image on my front cover and one of my images on my content page. The main th8ings that I did was to turn up the contrast to make the image darker to fit in with my target audience and genre of music. I also turned the sharpness up to make the image a lot clearer as it will make it look more professional as images on front covers aren’t blurry blobs in the corner they are still professional shots like the main image on the front cover.Adding all of the darker shadows and contrast etc makes my original image look better for my target audience and genre of magazine/music.Using Instagram allowed me to edit my photographs the way that Photoshop doesn’t do, or that I know of. Also using Instagram made it easier for me to edit photos at home because I can edit them at home without having to use Photoshop which I don’t have on my laptop.
