2. Planning is something I have never
been good at in my life, however
planning was necessary for this project
in almost every manner from time
management to magazine planning of
every aspect, such as font choice, colour
choice, layout and more through the use
of mood boards and analysis

3. I did not know anything about
photography or how it applied to a
magazine before I started my magazine
project, however after my preliminary
project I understood taking mid shots
and editing them using Photoshop,
something which I had never attempted
before. My first mid shots did not come
out very well, however I learned from
my mistakes in time for the music
magazine.

4. I also did not know about magazine
design themes at all before starting this
project. Throughout the project I
learned about the importance of this me
shot, the left-aligned story rule and
more relating to the other 2 pages such
as picture usage on a double page
spread and the use of structure on a
contents page. I also learned from my
mistakes here, for example the top ‘bar’
section of the design was something I
did not like at all, therefore it was
changed in the music magazine.
