After completing a school magazine as a preliminary task, the author looked back and saw progression in skills from that first task to a final music magazine product. While new to Photoshop tools for the preliminary task, the author learned skills like adding fonts, improving page layout, and using tools like the image adjustment tool to better suit styles and make images more visible for the final product compared to the first task.
