1. Looking back at your preliminary
task what do you feel you have
learnt in the progression from it to
the full product?

2. Looking back at my preliminary task I feel my knowledge of using Photoshop
has expanded. For example I now know how to make elements of my
magazine stand out more by using drop shadows and outer glows.
In addition to this, I have increased my knowledge on how to select parts of
photos using the quick selection tool, this really helped me with my front
cover image. I've also learnt how to download better more interesting that
suit my magazine more fonts from dafont.com, increasing the variety of
typography in my magazine. I feel as though I have used more diverse
techniques than my preliminary task. For instance I have included quotes,
freebies and more information to attract the audience where as my
preliminary task lacked this. The photos I had taken for the preliminary task I
feel didn’t give as strong as impact as the main task. Using a phone rather
than a digital camera was mainly because of my lack of experience and also I
planned more in-depth for my mise-en-scene, costumes and props. Overall
my understanding of many software's has improved significantly throughout
this project. Also I feel my main task looks much more interesting because of
my improvements and developments in comparison to the preliminary task.
