1. 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. What have I learnt?
• When I was creating my college magazine, it was lacking a lot
of features and so it did not look professional. I did not know
how to use Photoshop to its full extent when I was making
the college magazine.

3. Cover page
• In the process of making my music
magazine I have learnt many new
skills and how to use a variety of
software’s efficiently. Looking back
at the college magazine cover
page, it was very simple and basic,
it also lacked a lot of detail.

4. Cover page
• However, it is clear that in my
music magazine, that I have
learnt new skills as my music
magazine cover page looks
professional and well done. It
includes features like a skyline,
masthead, blurb, barcode, issue
number, price and a QR code.

5. Masthead
• . The masthead was also created
by me using adobe fireworks. I
had no previous knowledge of
adobe fireworks when I was
creating my college magazine
but I have learn to use it
features in making a custom
made masthead for my music
magazine.

6. Contents page
• My contents page also
looks simple and boring
when I look back at it. It
mainly lacks depth. The
background also does
not fit in with the design.
The whole design look it
was created by an
amateur.

7. Contents page
• My music magazine contents
page shows uniqueness and
creativity as I have layered the
images and text to give it a
house style. I have also
maintain the colour scheme
of the magazine to give it that
professional feel.
