Looking back at your preliminary task, what have you learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
When making my preliminary task at first I found it hard to create an actual magazine, as I was not aware of spacial awareness on the page, and how to fit all features of a magazine together whilst also making it look professional. However I feel that I overcome this problem when it came to my music magazine as I think I created an attractive and successful front page, as well as the other pages, which included all the features of a magazine that I would want it to whilst still making it look professional and uncluttered. When looking for research for my preliminary I did find parts of it hard to correlate to the product of my school magazine. I found finding photographic research particularly hard as I was not specific enough of what route I wanted to go down when making my school magazine. However when making my music magazine and looking for research, I was much more specific and detailed in what I was looking for, as I had planned out exactly what look and style I wanted for my music magazine. As I said in the question before, I was not familiar with the programs that I had to use, and so by the end of this work I am now able to effectively work the program, producing work which is adequate for the task set. I still had a slight problem with time management as in the making process of my double page spread I was fairly rushed, however I can learn and improve from this to make sure that I manage my time more carefully in the future.
I also learnt many technical skills and techniques which proved extremely useful when producing my music magazine. I firstly learnt photosgraphic skills. For example I found out how to successfuly use a professional camera to the best of its abilty to create shots which were I could use in my msic magazine.
