Evaluation-Question Six

Strengths

Using Adobe In-design made my magazine visually pleasing as it looks professional and almost like a real magazine by using bright colours and pictures. Also by using Adobe Photoshop to edit my photos in order for them to look professionally taken. By using tools such as the ‘pen’ tool, it gives more detail by adding little things, which creates a more streamline finish, which would be created by magazine editors. Also by using In-design it saved time creating a look that was finished enough to be called a magazine.

Weaknesses

By using a computer my initial designs couldn’t be followed, as the computer wouldn’t allow such designs to be formed. I then had to re-create similar design, which could be constructed easily on In-Design.

Opportunities

By using In-Design, a professional program used by successful graphic designers everywhere, it gave me the opportunity to design a good magazine. By being able to use a program like this a professional looking edge was given to my magazine.

Threats

Using the computer has its downfalls, as once I had finished a product the computer shutdown and did not save my final outcome so had to re-design it all again, whereas doing it free-hand all though taking longer would not do this.
