Photoshop

Before I started this project I already knew quite a lot about Photoshop, because I use it in my graphics lessons in college and I have it installed on my computer at home. However I have learned how to import text from a website into Photoshop which I was able to use for my project. While I was creating my magazine cover I wanted the title to look like the one from Total Film, and on most of those magazines the Total, which is placed inside the F of Film, is transparent so you can see the colour of the background through the text, and I learnt how to do that.

Final Cut Express

I had only used Final Cut Express a little bit before I started this project, so I knew barely anything about the software. However, I can now import my video clips onto the software so I can then use them to create a trailer or film or whatever I need. I have learnt how to cut video clips so I can get rid of parts that I don't want/need and I can also un-group the sound from the video so if I need to shorten one but keep the other the same length I now know how to do that.
