How has my creativity developed through using digital technology? cont.

Since the writing of the previous post, I have experienced further examples of digital technology aiding my creativity.
One such example would be the medium through which I am publishing these essays: blogging. This medium potentially allows access to a vast audience across the globe and allows all of my writing to be stored in one place and date-ordered. It also allows the embedding of images and websites which I feel are relevant, allowing me to present any sources of inspiration and the final media product within the blog with relative ease. The ease of accessibility linked to blogging is reflective of proliferation of new media technology such as Web 2.0, with blogs being highly popular and accessible through a large number of websites.
Photoshop has also furthered creative development, as it allows the creation of images which would otherwise be either highly difficult or, in some cases, impossible to capture. As such, we can be more imaginative with our ideas for the image-based elements of the coursework module.
I already had some self-taught knowledge of Photoshop, as I often used the program to edit and resize photos before uploading them to social networking sites. However, my knowledge was rather limited, as I had previously had no real reason to further explore the tools available. After the workshop though, I now feel more confident in using Photoshop to perform more complex actions, such as superimposing images onto backgrounds in a more tidy and professional manner and adding more appropriate effects to both images and text.
