EVALUATION – QUESTION 7

2. LOOKING BACK AT YOUR PRELIMINARY TASK (THE SCHOOL
MAGAZINE TASK), WHAT DO YOU FEEL YOU HAVE LEARNT IN
THE PROGRESSION FROM IT TO FULL PRODUCT?
Since I have created my college magazine I had leant how to use
Photoshop, but I never new how to use most of the tools, most of
the time I was just using each tool and seeing what they do and if
they were any use to me. Whist I was using some tool I revealed
some more elements that could be used like whist using text I
could edit and also modify it as using drop shades, outer shades
and colour fill in effects.

3. What I have leant most of all if how a magazine is laid out and also
the main factors to make a perfect magazine. Also the different
colour schemes that represent different music genres, this is
important as it allows the audience to understand and know what
type of music band it is if not identified.

4. Overall my understanding of the software has improved
dramatically and through the project I have leant new skills and
took within the software to allow me to gain confidence and
therefore giving me the ability to make a better and more realistic
magazine especially when I was using the tools and getting the
lighting and contrast perfect.
