Review Of Skills

Last year, the pre-production went well because i had done a lot of research about hip-hop music magazines and what conventions are used. I also learnt how things such as photoshop and digital cameras are used.

When i first came across with photoshop i had no clue what it was, and how to work it, but now i can use it very well and know how to use a lot of the tools. I also developed photography skills as i had never really come across using and expensive camera such as the pendax kdc series camera which is used for photography but now i am used to using the camera and i can now use it quite well.

Also last year we watched the films London To Brighton and Shifty this showed us the genre of British realism and through this the skills we learnt was research and analysis of the genre, we also learned the techniques and learnt how to apply them such as digital technology by using them to take pictures or to record our short films.

So the things that went well/ the strengths during the project was that i learnt how to use the cameras well how to use photoshop and edit pictures and create effects, also i learnt various photoshop and camera work skills, also the research i done for the magazine was good as i got all the information i needed to know for what has to be in my music magazine and the information needed to be put in. I also learnt the right mise en scene and what clothes the model should be wearing and what the picture should look like.
