Abbie reflects on improvements made from her preliminary college magazine project to the full music magazine product. She notes her digital photography skills have grown, such as better implementing the rule of thirds and more professional photo placement. Editing photos through tools like brightness, contrast, and sharpness also improved. The overall design and layout looks more polished with easier text integration on the cover. While previously using Photoshop, her skills have continued advancing from preliminary work to the final magazine appealing to an older audience.
