The document compares the student's preliminary and final fronts covers and contents pages for an indie-pop music magazine project. For the front cover, the student learned to properly lay out the magazine, use the right color shading, employ good camera angles and lighting to make the models look like a realistic band. For the contents page, the student learned to improve the brightness of background images, develop better camera skills, maintain color scheme consistency and include more content about the magazine's featured artists. Overall, the student feels they have come a long way and improved dramatically by taking on challenges they didn't think were possible, such as using photo editing software. Feedback from peers confirmed how much better the final magazine looked compared to the preliminary version.
