Loooking back at your preliminary taskWhat do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

Throughout the year, I have certainly strongly felt that there had been a positive progress present, which lead to the improvement of the final product. As we can see, below, are the final versions of two magazines, at the top, is student's magazine, which I have created earlier on the year, on after that, is music magazine, which has been created by using all the skills and experience that have been learnt over the months.



















As we can see, the front cover of the music magazine does not only look more professional but also vastly concentrates on the target audience. As mentioned, I have undertaken some research in order to find out what the potential would be interested, whilst, in comparison, with the school magazine, no extra work had been done.

When I started to use Photoshop, I hadn't used it before creating the three pages for the music magazine. This means that I was able to transform my experience, and learnt from my mistakes in order to make it as good as it is. The quality of photos, had to be high in order to make sure that no marks would be lost. In order to make high quality photographs I had to use a professional camera and I found out as much as I could about how to take good photographs.

Furthermore, due to the greater use of technology, I have found some websites which have not used before, and they include Dafunk, Dafont, through the use of these websites I was able to make the pages look more interesting and unique to a certain extend.

For the preliminary work, not much blogging was done, in comparison with the work for the music magazine. I have made sure that I have blogged regularly and shown the development of my work throughout.  I have also used Slideshare, in order to transform my powerpoints online.

To conclude, I would like to outline that, for sure, I have improved my technological skills and this would help me with the future tasks.
