1. Evaluation Question 7
Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt
in the progression from it to the full product?

2. Codes and Conventions:
 Within my preliminary task, I ensured that I used codes and conventions which
are in magazines. However, the way I initially did it, it was very basic and
looked amateur. I used a lot of colour and didn’t think about how it impacted
the look and feel of the magazine. With my main task, I have taken more
consideration with how I set out my magazine so it had a more professional
look to the magazine. On my preliminary task, the front cover was very basic
as I just added text to an image whereas now I spent more time on how the
cover is arranged and how it looks compared to real magazines and how it
represents the genre for my magazine.

3. Technology:
 I have massively improved when it comes to using technology as with the
preliminary task I took little care with how I used photoshop or quark and how
it looked. On photoshop I made sure that I used techniques carefully so that
the magazine looks more professional, instead of very basic. With Quark, I
had help to rearrange my text and images so that it followed the codes and
conventions of music magazines. Within the preliminary task, I tried to use all
I had been shown in my contents page, but in doing so I made it look basic
and amateur.
