2. Using Software Mainly since the production of my preliminary task I think the way I use and my ability to use software such as Adobe photoshop and Quark Xpress has improved greatly and you can see this clearly from the difference in how the different covers and contents pages look.

4. Photography From the making of my preliminary task to my Music magazine it’s clear that my photography skills have improved.

6. Layout Before creating my preliminary task I didn’t have much insight as to what a music magazine should set out like and all the codes and conventions. Over time my understanding of the codes and conventions have improved and this can be seen in how the two magazines look .
7. Conclusion In conclusion I think that the difference in quality of my music magazine and preliminary task can be seen clearly. And this has been done by the improvements with my use of software and photography and my understanding of codes and conventions.
