The document summarizes the author's first Photoshop project and the minimal techniques used. It then lists each element of a magazine cover design and the techniques applied to each. These include adding/scaling images and text, changing colors/fonts, and using symbols. The author indicates their skills have improved, as evidenced by the ability to now apply techniques like cutting out images and editing opacity.
2. Photoshop development.
This is the first ting that I made on Photoshop
and as you can see, minimal techniques have
been used…
• There is no editing on the image
• I have not cut around the image
• I have not changed the opacity or shade of
any of these images.
• I have however used techniques such as
adding text, changing colours and fonts.
Adding symbols (the plug) and adding
photos.
• This shows how at first, I had little
experience on Photoshop.

Again comparing the 2 images my
Music Magazine shows off the
different techniques I can now use
on Photoshop. I think this is clear
evidence of the improvements I
have made.
4. A technique…
This is one of my favourite techniques that I have learned. Cutting around images (removing the
background) and placing the image in front of a more interesting background.
