SHSG advert

 

In the process of making my SHSG advert, I learnt how to operate a DSLR camera, including how to zoom in and out, and use the correct focus for my desired image. 

In photoshop, I learnt how to input images into my advert by downloading them or dragging them onto my page. I was also able to input images from different websites, such as my school logo,  and remove the background for a seamless effect. I could create a border using different layers, and add text boxes, each of a different size or font. One image is cropped into an oval shape to add differentiation and dimension to my advert, alongside more information about the sixth form at SHSG to attract potential students. 

I used a colour scheme of green, yellow, red, black and white to represent the common colours of Southend High School for Girls, reinforcing the representation of the school itself. This, alongside the headteachers letter, personalises the advert and represents the school in a sophisticated, appropriate manner.
