MAGAZINE COVER

We practiced our print work by doing a magazine cover using original photography. I used Ms. Mann's picture after her holiday to Japan. Using the city of Tokyo i created a magazine about city life.

SECRET CLAREMONT

We practiced our photoshop skills, taking pictures around the school finding secretive places and then taking them and editing them mine was from the wall of the main hall i then edited it by adding grain and some light effects to it. The point of this is to create a mysterious feel.

MEDIA USAGE

Hello i'm Jonny, welcome to my foundation portfolio for OCR Media.

Media Usage:

I have a mobile phone which is a Blackberry Curve, I mostly use my phone to talk to my friends via Blackberry Messenger. If I had to upgrade my phone I would keep a Blackberry, as I like how functional they are. With things such as camera and Internet it makes the phone a lot more sociable to use and fun to have.

To keep in touch with my friends I use Xbox Live to talk to my friends while playing games with them it is useful as it costs nothing and easy to use it is also fun to play games as well. I also use Facebook using the chat application on it so I can see who is online and talk to them. If i am out of my room then I would use my Blackberry phone. I am not concerned by my privacy issues on Facebook as only people who are my friends can see my profile so this is not a problem.

if i want to see a film I usually either buy the DVD and watch it or via Sky Player on my Xbox to watch films on demand for

free. If the film is new then I would go to the cinema and make a social event of it going with friends. I don't often watch

films at the cinema only occasionally and prefer DVD's to watch at home.

Music is important in my life i use iTunes to keep my music i keep up to date by downloading music of Youtube using theconverter. If i like the album then i would buy the CD of it. I avoid illegally downloading music online and buying it on iTunes.

As i like video games i play Xbox daily and often use my money to buy the newest games. I also use playing games to be social as i talk to my friends online and can also meet new people playing the game online.

I use the internet a lot throughout the week i often like to go on Facebook to socialize and go on Youtube to look at new videos and find new music. I also check for sports news throughout the week. I usually go on the internet and Xbox when i get home from school. My family use the internet to send emails for work and various other things.

On Tv i tend to watch films and sport i also watch some comedy programs such as Peep Show. I i miss something which i have watched then i record it on my Sky + i can also watch sport in HD.

In Future i think technology would be useful to use it to create a virtual internet where you are able to walk into the internet

and go where you like and any site and experience it so you could see your friends on Facebook.
