L03- Setting up PhotoShop

 300 resolution is a high quality resolution used for printing in the publishing sector. This resolution means that the final product will not look pixilated at a lower resolution that what is considered standard. This resolution also means the file I'll be using will be lossless. However, the downside of this is that it will take up a lot of file storage. 

Double page spread ideas 

For my double page spread, I will have one of my pages dedicated to being all about a snooker player and his opinions on the sport. This could be a guy who plays it for fun, or someone who plays the sport professionally. Next I could then right about the comment he has stated, and explain how this comment could have an effect on the world of snooker. For example, this could be based on how unpredictable the sport is, or how fun it can be when playing it, along with how much it can mean to the people who watch snooker seeing their country being represented in that sport, to bring a sort of diversity in sports for that country. Also, another idea I could right about on the double page spread, is the increase in women playing the sport. This is because women snooker may not be as popular as the men's snooker, but can be just as competitive and entertaining as the men's snooker. I could also get a snooker fan or snooker player, and get her opinions on how women who play snooker overcome the media backlash and continue to challenge the men's snooker in viewership and range of competitions.

These questions would be good on a double page spread, as I will be able to write down all the responses to the quotes said about the person who is the main focus on the magazine. It also allows me to write it in full detail and write down complete answers, that would interest my audience.

L03:Contact Sheet and evaluation

 Photo Analysis 

With the 7 photos that I have taken I will probably only use 5 of the ones I have currently taken. This is because with some of the photos I have taken the quality is poor, and hides much detail compared to what I have taken on other photos. 

For example, my photo which holds the most quality, is the second photo in black and white. This is because I timed the photo correctly giving me a shutter speed on the cue ball as it was being hit. I will use this photo in a few of my pages, due to how it stands out. Also, the photo I will not be using is the first one I have taken.  This is because the snooker table is too exposed by the light that is above the snooker table.  However, I could edit the photo in an attempt to down the exposer on the picture. 

Another photo that I will use is the last picture that I took. This is because the photo that I had taken is low down to make the snooker que and the balls around it look larger compared to their normal size if I was to take a normal photo. By doing this it gives the main focus of the image more detail as it is close up along with drawing more attention to those in the image. I will use this image as one of my pages, as I could do contents about the inside of snooker due to it being a close up image. 

Overall, I will probably use the other photos in my magazine as it has the right amount of content and detail that I feel is best for the magazine and the contents going on the magazine.
