1. Cover and contents page of student weekly!
PRELIMINARY TASK
EVALUATION EXAMPLE
2. cover lines
I have fewer cover lines
than the second
magazine. This is
because students wont
be interested if there
was a lot of text on the
front page, they would
be more interested in
the images on the page.
Main image
The main image used
in my magazine is a
medium close up of a
student.
The main image used
in the second
magazine is an image
of a attractive women
looking directly at the
camera. This is
effective as the
women is looking
directly at the
camera, which makes
it more personal. But
in my magazine the
girl is reading a book,
which relates more to
my target audience.
Masthead
Blush- the names of the masthead
is related to makeup and
appearance, whereas my
masthead “student weekly” is
related to students and
academics.

barcode

have included a barcode in my

professional.

4. vs
More text include in the
second magazine than in
the first. There is less
text in my magazine
because, it is a student
magazine therefore
students would not be
interested in a lot of
writing.
In the second
magazine there is only
one image but in my
magazine there are
three images. I have
chosen o use three
images because it
would be more
appealing to my target
audience. The image
used in the second
magazine is more
glamour's and
sophisticated, where
as my images are less
glamour's because they
are related to college.
5. Photoshop: I have learnt a lot since using Photoshop. Firstly I have
learnt a lot of different ways that I can manipulate images to make them
look differently. Photoshop has also helped me correct photography
mistakes. Additional I learnt how to get rid of p[arts of an image that I
did not need, and add in extra parts to an image. I also learnt how to
upload font text from I used Photoshop to create my front page and my
contents page. This was extremely useful because it made my magazine
more professional than if I had made my magazine on PowerPoint.
Moodle: Moodle was very helpful because it enabled me to access
resources to help me create my magazine. When using Moodle I looked at
examples of different magazine evaluations to help me improve my
magazine.
Digital camera: using the digital camera has helped me decide
what kind of shots and angles I would prefer to use for my magazine. I
learnt how to zoom out and in to achieve the perfect angle shot.
Furthermore using the camera helped me create the perfect MCU which
dominated the frame.
6. I have made a lot of progress throughout the whole project.
Firstly I now know how to use Photoshop more effectively than I
did before. I can now manipulate an image and make it look the
way I want it to.
I have also learnt how to make a magazine look more
professional.
7. To improve I could have manipulated
the I images more to make them
stand out more, and to make them
look more professional. I could have
done this using Photoshop. Also I
next time I think I would add the
title of the magazine to make it look
more professional.
