Interview, DPS and Photography

Free Lesson

I my free lesson today, I was listening to the audio of the interview that I recorded last night with my artist (model). I was typing it up and making sure that I had everything.

Lesson

In my actual lesson, I was working on my DPS. With my DPS photography done and my journalism typed up, all I had to do was put it together, which is what I started to do.

I added my journalism to my DPS and added the photos that I was going to use. On InDesign, you cannot actually make fonts bold, so I had to change the font of the questions slightly, from Rockwell to Rockwell Extra Bold, so that the reader can distinguish between what is a question and what isn't.

Another issue that I had with my DPS was my main photo, the photo that takes up the entire page. As it is in this screenshot, the photo is not properly aligned yet and I will need to sort this out in my next lesson or free lesson, but the main problem that I had with my photo was that when I placed it as a full-page image, it pixelated and became fuzzy.

However, after mentioning this to my teacher, I exported my DPS to JPEG and saw that actually, the pixelation was only on InDesign - once it was exported as a JPEG, the photo was no longer pixelated.

After college

After college, I went to the parish office of my church to get the final photo for the magazine - the photo for the News From the Ps23 Office article on the contents page. I took this photo in the office because the article is about an office, therefore this location is appropriate for the article.

I also have a model in this photo - pretending to be a worker for the magazine, as it was mentioned to me that I did not have enough models in my magazine. I had only two - my main model, and one who I took photos of in my studio shoot.
