What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
I have learnt how to use adobe photoshop as I didn't no how to use it before. Things like cutting out images and changing the size was hard at first but now I am able to perform these task within a small time frame. I have learnt how to use tools such as gradients, and have used it throughout my magazine. I also now know what each tool does and what they can be used for.

Microsoft word was easy for me as I have been using it for a long time but I recently found out how to use columns as this was the first time I had to use them for my work.

People who are also wanting to be rappers will also be my audience for the magazine.



Evaluation

what kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?






I think that IPC might distribute my media product as they distribute magazines to a nice audience. Hip - hop is not part of their niche categories but will expand their audience as they currently don't sell a magazine of this genre.
