I have realize that I need to take more pictures for my magazine. I was able to take a photo for my title page cover, but would like to take more for my table of contents and two page article. The pictures I have now are too small and aren’t clear enough. So, I will need to schedule a Nother photo shoot. Since my magazine issue is Christmas themed, I will most likely bake my own cookies or cupcakes to take pictures of. I will probably use my phone since I no longer have the camera I was using before.

I integrated multiple types of technology throughout the production of my magazine. For example in design, which are used to create my title cover to beat article and table of contents. By using this technology it allowed me to make my magazine the way I wanted it to. I was also able to use a camera to take clear pictures of us who did my magazine.Are use a computer for research to better understand how to target multiple audiences. I also did research on how to use in design.

 Throughout working on this project my production skills have developed greatly. I am much more comfortable with in design which is what I have been using to produce my cover page table contents and two page article. By being more comfortable with a design it has allowed me to make my magazine the way I want it. From the Research that I have been doing I am more aware of how to target audiences.I have also become more experience with taking pictures that best suit my magazine. For example my title page in the beginning did not have enough room on it for my title and subtitle’s. The new picture I took is much better for the title page. I have also learned how to use different fonts font sizes and colors that best suit the magazine, and does attract buyers.
