3. Camera
The cameras I used to take my images
are;
- Canon EOS 1100D
This is the best canon to take images
with as you can see on the right. It has
all the features I need in order to
create the best images possible.

4. Green Screen
I used the greenscreen so I could
take pictures of my characters
and add a background of choice.
What Is a Green Screen and
How Does it Work?
A green screen is exactly what it
sounds like- a green screen
placed behind the subject being
filmed. The blank green screen
allows designers to superimpose
digital images into the
background of your video to
create unique environments. It's
not new technology, but it's the
most effective way of
integrating high quality images
into the background.

5. Lighting
I used the lighting so that my
images would show up a lot
better when I took them by the
green screen.
However, some of my images
had a little to much lighting and
my other images were took
outside and in a house.
But the images that didn’t work
so well I edited in Photoshop, or
I didn’t use them.

6. Photoshop
I used Adobe Photoshop Elements, so that I could edit my
photographs and text to make them look more effective so
that it appeals to my target audience.
Photoshop has many features that helped me produce
some really good pieces of work and the before and after
images, you can really see how much of a difference
Photoshop can make to the images.

7. QuarkXPress
I used QuarkXPress to produce my magazine front cover,
contents page and the double page spread.
This software was ok to use and helped me produce a really
good magazine layout. It also had some effects that I used
within my magazine to make it more suitable for the target
audience.

8. Macromedia Fireworks
I used Macromedia Fireworks to edit some of images, titles
and layouts of my magazine.
Even though I used Photoshop and QuarkXPress to help me
produce my magazine, there were some effects that were
easier to use in Fireworks but after I did it in Fireworks I
exported it and took it over to the other software to
improve.
