Learning Outcome

For my AS final project, I created a magazine about child labor and picked up a bunch of skills, especially with Photoshop and photography. At first, it was tough since I didn't have much experience with either. In Photoshop, I struggled with layers, filters, and all the different tools. Getting good photos was also hard. But, after some practice, I started getting the hang of things. Photoshop became easier, and I got better at editing photos, adjusting the lighting, and making the images show the emotion of child labor. Photography also got simpler, and I learned what makes a photo stand out. I figured out how to frame shots, adjust the settings, and capture images that would really support the magazine's message. By the end of the project, these skills felt natural. They not only made my work better, but they also helped me get more creative.
