Skills

Since starting AS media, I have learnt a number of skills, them being in photography, using the iMac, and looking at different aspects of media. I’ve learnt a selection of terms that are used in the media, for example, semiotics, and codes and conventions and masthead; we’ve also studied closely at genres, and how to identify them. On the macs we’ve been using adobe elements 11, which is a photo editor, we used this for our front cover for our college magazine and also the contents page, at first it was difficult to understand but once we studied it harder it became clearer. However there are some tools I’m still not too sure on. We’ve worked on photography.
