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

For my preliminary task I did not do this and for my music magazine I did therefore achieving a better result. This research came in different forms such as researching existing products such as rap magazine ‘Vibe’ to gain a better understanding of their conventions and also as mentioned researching my target audience through use of secondary research such as statistics found on the internet and primary research in the form of questionnaires.
