The document discusses the progression of skills from a preliminary task to the full product. It notes that while the preliminary outcome was not great due to limited Photoshop experience, skills developed through practice. The final product showed a huge improvement through the use of conventions like coverlines and banners, as well as following a consistent color scheme and typefaces. Technical skills also improved, like fading backgrounds and adding black boxes to text for effect.

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. When I began using Photoshop I want sure on how to use the more advanced
features such as the spot healing tool. Before I began this coursework I only
used Photoshop a handful of time which was why the final outcome of my
preliminary wasn’t great. However as I carried on practicing with Photoshop
you can tell that my skill have developed. As you can see from my preliminary, I
haven't used a lot of conventions however with my final products you can see a
huge improvement as I have used conventions such as coverlines, banners
barcode etc. also I have followed a house style with my final product such as
the colour scheme, typefaces etc.

3. As you can below there is huge improvement from my preliminary task to my
final contents page. My final product had good structure as I have took
inspiration from vibe’s contents pages. Also the main reason I it look better
was because of the image itself as represented my chosen genres, the
typefaces of the cover lines and the house style throughout my magazine. I
did this as this was a very common convention in other magazines such as
Vibe. In regards of technical stuff I have learnt how to fade the background
for effect, have also learnt how to put black box behind the text to make the
page more appealing.
