•
General, e.g. RAM, processor, file storage, e.g. CD ROM, hard drive
Software:
•

•
Dedicated raster graphics (bitmap) software, e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Paint 3D and GIMP
•
Dedicated photo manipulation software, e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Paint 3D and GIMP
•
Graphics facilities other packages
•
Other tools, e.g. Photos, photo galleries
File handling:
•
Converting files
•
File sizes
•
File formats, e.g. bmp, jpeg, gif

Task 2
• What is the difference between vector and bitmap graphics?
• How are vector and bitmap graphics used? Provide suitable examples.
• Compare different types of images and file sizes.
• Understand image resolution and colour depth (e.g., 8-bit, 16-bit) and its

Task 3
• Create a poster for school ‘Bake Sale’. Make sure to include all relevant
information such as title, date and time of bake sale, venue, images…

•
Write a detailed commentary or description of the process you followed,
including:
- Why you chose the specific hardware (scanner or digital camera) for the task.
- Any adjustments or settings you made on the hardware.
- Any challenges you encountered and how you overcame them.
- How the image you obtained aligns with the defined purpose.
(NOTE: If applicable, you can include witness statements from anyone who observed
or assisted with the image acquisition process).
Mr Shamim Ahmed
Task 4
• Create a ‘Mind Map’ of how you will create your poster.
•
What relevant laws and guidelines need to be considered when using
images from the internet? E.g. copyright issues
• Open Paint 3D or Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop and create a digital
poster for your ‘Bake Sale’.
•
•
Compare the three software highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of
each software.
Use up to 10 different tools and techniques and show evidence of how you used
them

Task 5
• Create a Leaflet to convey the information you want to share about the
‘Bake Sale’.
• Select the images you created using your graphic editing software in Task 4.

•
Examine the original images and identify changes that can be made to mee the
needs of the leaflet.
Consider aspects such as cropping, resizing, color adjustments, adding text
overlays, or applying filters or effects as needed.
