This document discusses layout options for a music magazine. It proposes Layout 1 as the best option, as it clearly displays necessary information like the title, cover lines, date, price and barcode in an organized manner. Layout 1 is also influenced by the layout of "Classic Rock" magazine, which has a similar high-quality style with few cover lines on the front page. Though another layout is influenced by "Elle" magazine, the author feels Layout 1 is better for a rock music magazine as it avoids being too feminine and allows exploring new technical skills.

Task 16 evaluation question 1 double page spread
Both magazine spreads use a similar interview layout with questions and answers in columns. However, the key differences are:
- The OP magazine has the title, subtitles, and logo on the left page only, following convention. Q magazine spreads these elements across both pages.
- Q magazine does not include a page number, breaking convention. The OP magazine includes a page number in yellow for branding consistency.
- Quotes are presented differently, with the OP magazine making some quotes larger than others to attract readers. Q magazine does not vary quote sizes.
Overall the OP magazine follows most conventions around layout and branding elements, while Q magazine breaks some conventions in its presentation of elements across the double page.
Contents page analysi
The document analyzes and compares the contents pages of three music magazines: MixMag, NME, and Kerrang. It finds that MixMag and NME have neatly organized contents pages that make articles and sections easy to find. Kerrang's page is less neat but still readable. All three magazines use prominent images related to current music topics and group regular sections together clearly.
Front page final
This student created a magazine front cover using circles to make it more appealing and follow conventions of published music magazines. Changes from the original draft included removing cover lines from the top left to reduce overcrowding and changing the masthead color from red to black to better fit the color scheme. The final cover includes issue number, date and exclusive content to engage the intended audience.
Magazine contents
The document compares the contents pages of three music magazines. It finds that the first magazine's contents page is unclear and dull due to its grey color. In contrast, the NME magazine has a clearer layout that shows what each page contains. The Q magazine page uses bold colors and images to catch readers' attention, but does not clearly list all pages and contents.
Contents deconstruction NME
The document summarizes and analyzes the contents page layout of Q Magazine. It notes that the masthead uses the phrase "Inside this week" instead of "Contents" to make it more interesting. The contents are presented with images and captions rather than just a plain list, making the articles seem more engaging. Key details like page numbers and the subscription ad are prominently displayed to help readers navigate. The overall design breaks from conventions to create a more visually appealing contents page.
Title analysis
The document analyzes magazine title designs of several magazines including CLASH, NME, and Rolling Stone. It notes that CLASH uses a simple bold font that stands out, sometimes overlaying the title with photos. NME also makes their title stand out against the busy magazine using bold large font and merging the background image behind the title. Rolling Stone uses an interesting retro font with a shadow and outline that brings an iconic look, and sometimes overlays the title with photos or adds effects like lines to the lettering. The document suggests incorporating techniques like these to make a magazine title stand out.
Media question 5
The document discusses ways that a magazine cover attracts its audience. It explains that the black sticker on the front cover stands out against the white background and catches readers' attention. The sticker promotes the magazine's coverage of "2017's hottest new bands" which intrigues readers. Additionally, the calm pose of the rock star on the cover makes him seem different from typical rock stars and prompts questions. The bold names and intriguing descriptions of artists under cover lines also pique interest without giving too much away. Free gifts and words like "exclusive" are used to suggest the magazine is rare and attract more viewers.
Final front cover print screens
This document describes the process of designing the front cover of an EDM magazine. The designer chose a crowd photo from an EDM club in London as the main image. Text was added including the magazine masthead, skyline, festival name, artist names, and cover lines. Feedback indicated the cover had too much text and was too dark, so the designer lightened the image and reduced the text based on magazines like NME and DJ Mag.

Contents page analysis
The contents page of a magazine provides an overview of the articles and sections in a clear layout. While there is no explicit heading saying "contents", the structure and positioning of the page implies that this is the contents. Key details like article titles, images, and page numbers are prominently displayed to help readers easily navigate to sections that interest them. The goal is to design an easily scannable contents page that guides readers to find the content they want.
Contents deconstruction NME
The magazine uses an unconventional masthead stating "Inside this week" instead of "Contents" to make the contents page more interesting and inform readers it's weekly. A bold font is used to draw attention to the masthead. The contents are listed with article titles in the same font for simplicity. Some articles are presented with images and captions instead of just text to make them seem more engaging. Page numbers are consistently formatted in red bold to easily locate articles of interest. An advertisement to subscribe is also eye-catchingly included in red. The layout makes the contents page more unusual and interesting than typical "boring" lists.
Screenshot dps

They adjusted the layout to fit an image entirely on one page when the original spanned the gutter. Additional graphics were added to the bottom of each page. The designer is pleased with the final layout that engages readers with a feel for the summer music festivals featured in the article.

This document discusses the layout and design choices for a music magazine front cover. The author explains moving certain elements like the cover lines and barcode to improve the design. Font size and style were adjusted to make some text stand out more, and a slanted "festival guide box" was chosen over a straight one to seem less formal. Quotation marks were made larger to better call attention to a pull quote. Overall changes were made to create a simple yet interesting design appropriate for the music genre while effectively presenting necessary information to the intended audience.
Media homework
The document discusses magazine design elements including the masthead, cover lines, background, price, and contents page. The masthead is in a unique bold font at the top to capture attention. Cover lines describe the magazine's contents but not cover the model's face. Backgrounds are simple with blank colors or blurred pictures so cover lines are readable. Price and masthead are prominently displayed. Contents pages list sections and the issue number to help readers find topics. Images are included to engage readers. Elements are designed and positioned intentionally to attract buyers.
Magazine inspirations
The document discusses how the creator will use various magazines as inspiration for creating their own magazine. They will look at fashion magazines, events magazines, and regional magazines as these are genres that their finished magazine could fit into. They discuss specific elements they will take from sample magazines, such as a model's facial expression, an autumnal background theme, the size of a masthead compared to other elements, and featuring regional places on the front cover to clearly identify the magazine's regional focus.
Ancillary task2/Final magazine cover evaluation
The document discusses the design of a magazine cover, including elements like the masthead, issue number, website, inclusion of two free posters, consistent font and colors for subtitles, use of red to draw attention to titles, white background to focus on the image and masthead, lighter text underneath headings, lack of gaps in the page layout, and placement of information in a film roll to persuade readers to buy the magazine. The main image features a close-up shot of an actor from the film being featured, showing blood on his face but with a proud, evil expression to suggest he enjoys someone else's blood.
School Magazine Analysis
This document describes the layout and design elements of a school magazine. It notes various visual components like photo collages, large fonts, and blended images that make the magazine feel more like an inviting scrapbook than an official publication. It also mentions inclusion of information like term dates, the school emblem and name, and stories about school events that would be of interest to students, parents, and staff. The lack of barcodes indicates the magazine is not intended for commercial sale but rather to inform and engage the school community.
Front Cover Analysis2
This front cover analysis examines the design elements of a magazine cover, including the masthead, selling line, cover lines, main images, main cover line, explanatory text, barcode, and fold-out page. The masthead is short and snappy but could be obscured by images of models. The selling line effectively conveys the magazine's genre.

The additional fold-out page makes the cover unique.
Contents page analysis

Question 1
The document discusses how the creator of a music magazine looked to other magazines like "Q" and "Miss Vogue" for inspiration in designing their magazine's contents page.

While seeking inspiration from other magazines, the creator wanted to ensure their magazine still felt original.
College magazine evaluation
This document summarizes Lauren Mcloughlin's evaluation of a college magazine cover and contents page she created. For the cover, her main feature picture is large and clear with direct address to capture attention. However, she could have included a website to make it more authentic. The contents page fits pictures and text nicely without being crowded. However, it looks more formal than a college magazine should and could include more pictures and pages. She used Photoshop to edit photos and design the cover, and Quark to layout the contents page, having to learn how to use the software and properly size and position elements.

The document analyzes the layout, colors, images, and fonts used on the contents page of "Shout", a magazine targeted at female teenagers. The layout and design elements are intended to be simplistic, visually interesting, and appealing to teenagers.

Double page spread
The document discusses the challenges of developing an AI assistant that can have natural conversations and understand language like humans. It notes that current AI systems struggle with ambiguity and require narrow, explicit contexts to understand language. For an AI to be truly helpful, harmless, and honest it will need to have more flexible and general understanding of language grounded in commonsense knowledge about the world.
Analasis of the title
The document analyzes and summarizes the fonts and designs of three music magazines - Elle, Kerrang, and Classic Rock. For Elle magazine, the font is elegant, simple, and sophisticated, indicating it is a woman's magazine. Kerrang's sans-serif font and edgy lines suggest rock music and appeal to teenagers. Classic Rock uses a bold font to attract older readers' eyes while the stars highlight the classic rock genre from the 80s and 90s. Black is a common color used across the magazines to represent energy, mystery and rock conventions.
Magazine convention through time
The document discusses conventions followed in rock music magazine covers from the 1960s to the 1990s. It notes that covers commonly used black colors as a symbol of energy and mystery. They also featured models with direct gazes to create a connection with readers. Repeated use of red and white in the color schemes aimed to represent the music genre. Fonts with hard corners conveyed a hardcore theme and sense of adrenaline to engage readers.
The male gaze – laura mulvey
Laura Mulvey coined the term "Male Gaze" to describe how audiences view characters from the perspective of a heterosexual male in films. The Male Gaze theory suggests that women are denied human identity and are instead viewed and presented as objects to be admired based on their physical appearance. It also suggests that women can only watch films from the perspective of a man and see themselves through a man's eyes. Features of the Male Gaze include the camera lingering on a woman's body and events involving women being presented in the context of a man's reaction.
Shooting schedule
The shooting schedule outlines the days, times, locations, shots needed, and people required for a music video shoot over three days in December. On Saturday, exterior shots are planned at a park of the singer performing and children playing, with establishing, long, and mid shots. Sunday's interior shots at a house include zooming out a window and long and close ups of the singer and her sister. Monday has an over-the-shoulder mirror shot of just the singer. Wednesday finishes with outdoor long and mid shots at a beach or forest of the singer and crew enjoying themselves.
Research into the music video industry
Music videos are typically made through a post-production process involving editing footage, adding visual effects and sound design. They serve to promote and market new songs, developing the artist's brand and star persona. Famous music video directors like Joseph Kahn create highly creative and artistic videos that help popularize songs. While average music video budgets range from $500 to $1250 per day of production, some large-budget videos like Britney Spears' "Toxic" cost over $1 million to produce. Audiences can now access music videos through various platforms like television, YouTube, social media and music downloads on services like iTunes.
Survey analysis
The survey results showed that the target audience for the music magazine is mainly female teenagers aged 16-18 who enjoy classic rock and heavy metal music. Most respondents said they do not currently read music magazines but enjoy Kerrang magazine. To appeal to this audience, the magazine should feature modern rock music content, have an appealing design with good images, and be affordable for teenagers. It will aim to emulate Kerrang magazine's success at attracting this demographic while exploring a wider range of rock music genres.
Front cover develpment
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
In what ways does your media school magazine
The student's school magazine develops conventions of real media products by using direct gaze from models on the front cover to create a relationship with readers, similar to an example magazine. However, the school magazine is more formal than the example due to its theme and target age group. It challenges conventions by featuring three models instead of one. The magazine aims to attract six form students by featuring topics like "university time" and displaying diverse, powerful representations of women rather than stereotypical portrayals. The student learned to further develop Photoshop and Prezi skills from constructing this magazine.
Photos analysis
The author found Courtney Love's photoshoot in Elle magazine inspirational because Love looked like a goddess of rock music. This is what the author wanted to portray in their own magazine aimed at women. The author analyzed an image they were considering and felt it successfully represented the rock genre through the model's direct gaze, ripped tights, heavy boots, and choker necklace. While some body is shown, the model is not sexually objectified. The image portrays the dangerous atmosphere of a rock music magazine alongside female nature.
Media mind board
Mind Board is a new product that allows users to control devices with their thoughts alone. By wearing a headset that monitors brain activity, a person can perform tasks like turning on lights or playing music just by thinking about the desired action. This technology could have applications for helping disabled individuals who are unable to use their hands or voice to control devices in the future.
Magazine name idea
The document discusses several potential names and fonts for a rock music magazine project. It considers names like "Vigorous", "Metallica", and "Sweet Emotion" and their associations with power, energy, and emotion. Various fonts are also discussed in terms of their similarity to horror movies or newspapers and their connotations of danger, violence, and mystery. Feedback from a survey of 29 people on different font options is mentioned to help decide which design would be most attractive to the target audience.
Magazine Analysis
During this project I research different magazines front covers, in order to understand different features used.
Analysing contents page
This document analyzes the visual elements and conventions used in the contents page of a rock music magazine. It discusses how the mid-shot of the model creates a closer relationship with readers. Dark colors and tattoos on the model follow conventions representing the rock genre. Details like the publication date and issue number help readers find the magazine. Elements like the model's dress, hair, and pose suggest a natural yet mysterious style that aligns with the magazine's genre. The use of a guitar and other symbols further represent the rock music theme.
Richard dyer's star theory
Richard Dyer's star theory proposes that celebrities and icons are constructed by media institutions like the music industry for financial gain. Stars are manufactured to represent "real people" experiencing real emotions in order to appeal to audiences and drive record sales. Dyer's theory has three parts: 1) how audiences and institutions interact in constructing stars, 2) how stars are artificial media constructions presented as real people, and 3) the concept of cultural "hegemony" where audiences relate to and sometimes emulate stars they share features with or admire.

Sven E Carlsson proposed that music videos can typically be analyzed by splitting them into binary opposites. He believes there are two main categories of music videos: Performance videos that focus on showing the artist, and Conceptual videos that emphasize artistic elements over the narrative. Performance videos can showcase the artist through dance, singing, or playing instruments, essentially advertising the performer. Conceptual videos may include the artist only briefly and prioritize artistic environments and backdrops over the story.
Andrew goodwin’s music video theory
Andrew Goodwin identified 6 key aspects that are often featured in music videos: 1) A relationship between the lyrics and visuals, 2) Seeing the sound through beats and editing, 3) Genre-related style and imagery, 4) Close-ups to promote the artist's star persona, 5) Voyeurism especially in representing female artists, and 6) Intertextual references to other media. Music videos can anchor the meaning of a song for viewers and promote the artist, but they also risk objectifying artists, especially women.
Master heads
The document summarizes an interview with the British rock star Cora about her new album "Don't Let Me Go" and the changes she has made to her image and music style. Cora explains that the album was meant to show her desire to become a better person for her daughter and husband after past mistakes hurt them. While some fans criticize her new "Adele-like" sound and more feminine image as departing from her usual hardcore rock style, Cora says she wants to continue producing both types of music and hopes to gain new fans while keeping her old ones. She sees the album as portraying the good and bad parts of life but ultimately expressing her love for family.

Preliminary task
The document summarizes the differences between the mastheads, front covers, contents pages, images, and conclusions of a preliminary school magazine task and a final music magazine. For the mastheads, the preliminary task used a formal style while the music magazine used a more stylish font to match its target audience. The front cover of the music magazine was better structured with cover lines and information. The contents page of the music magazine was also more organized and visually appealing. The images in the music magazine showed more advanced lighting, posing, and styling techniques. In conclusion, the author felt they had improved based on lessons learned from the preliminary task.
Presentation12
The document discusses the conventions used and challenged in the design of a pop/chart magazine called "House of Song". Key points:
- The color scheme of black, white, pink and blue is cleaner than most magazines but still links the different elements.
- The cover features the masthead, artist photo and colored fonts used for impact. It's inspired by other magazine covers.
- The contents page matches the color scheme and includes the masthead to link the pieces. It intentionally leaves out some typical elements to avoid clutter.
- The article features a colored headline, quotes and clean photos to be consistent yet draw the eye, as seen in other magazines. Page numbers also link it to the contents
Question1
The document discusses how the media product uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real media products.
It summarizes that the magazine's front cover uses conventions well by having the main image in the center to catch attention, and connecting the color of the guitar to other elements.
However, it also challenges some conventions by only including three "anchorage" points rather than the typical 4-5, making the main image black and white with color only on the guitar, and merging music with fashion genres.
The contents page also aims to challenge conventions by having a cleaner, simpler layout suited to the target audience, while still including typical elements like headers and page numbers.

Evaluation question
This document summarizes the key design elements of a magazine cover and contents page created for a class assignment on developing and challenging conventions of rock music magazines. The cover features a masthead titled "Plectrum", a color scheme of red and gold, a model challenging stereotypes of rock stars, cover lines promoting articles, and a main line about secrets. The contents page repeats the masthead and color scheme, lists page numbers and titles on the left, and includes related images of the featured artist. A double page spread features the artist in front of graffiti with an unconventional coming of age story article and pull quote from the artist.
Evaluation of my music magazine ‘volume’
The document evaluates the creator's music magazine called 'Volume' and discusses design choices made based on researching other magazines.
Key design elements taken from other magazines include a black background from Kerrang! magazine for a rock edge, adding a skyline and banner from Kerrang! to make text stand out, and using pinks and purples from Bliss magazine which contrast well with black.
Feedback from surveys informed further changes such as modifying the masthead to stand out more, adding more color to engage readers, and including additional photos as suggested. The final magazine reflects an iterative design process of testing ideas, gathering input, and refining the layout, color scheme, and elements to create an engaging music publication.
Evaluation question 1
This document summarizes the key elements of a mock rock music magazine the author created for a class assignment. The summary includes:
The masthead "Plectrum" was chosen to represent the genre and is displayed in a rugged font. A color scheme of red, gold, and black was selected.
The cover features a model challenging conventions by lacking tattoos but dressing appropriately in a white t-shirt and black hoodie.
Inside, the contents page layout and repeated use of the masthead and colors maintain consistency. A double-page spread tells the artist's backstory rather than a typical Q&A.
Evaluation 1
The document summarizes how the author's media product, a music magazine, uses and develops conventions from existing music magazines. The author researched magazines like "We Heart Pop" and "Vibe" to inform design choices for layout, fonts, colors, cover images, and other elements. While conforming to conventions like bold fonts and rule of thirds composition, the author also challenged conventions by including an editor's letter and multiple images on the contents page to provide more context for articles. The goal was to create a magazine that would appeal to 13-21 year olds with its bright, busy design while putting emphasis on the artists and stories featured.
Q1final
The layout and design of the magazine cover follows conventions of existing magazines, with cover lines and masthead placed in typical positions. However, it challenges conventions by featuring non-stereotypical representations of a rock band on the cover. The contents page similarly draws from typical magazine layouts but challenges expectations by depicting the featured band in an unusual pose. While incorporating standard magazine sections, the article aims to provide an exclusive interview that would attract readers through its informal question and answer format.
Q1
The layout and design of the magazine cover follows conventions of existing magazines, with cover lines and masthead placed in typical positions. However, it challenges conventions by featuring non-stereotypical representations of a rock band, including members of various ethnicities and a female band leader. The contents page similarly draws from typical magazine layouts but challenges expectations by featuring the band looking at the editor's note rather than working. The article obtains an exclusive interview that discusses an upcoming album and wedding in a question and answer format similar to real music interviews.
My Music magazine project
The document summarizes the design choices made for the cover and content pages of a music magazine called "Unplugged."
For the cover, conventions such as placing the masthead at the top and featuring a band photo were followed. However, unconventional design elements like a black and white band photo and gold masthead were used to give the magazine its own unique style.
The content page layout in columns with article titles and page numbers was meant to look professional and make content easily navigable for readers interested in music news. Both conventional elements borrowed from other magazines and original design choices were utilized.
1 evaluation
The document discusses how a magazine cover and contents page conform to and challenge conventions of rock music magazines.
The magazine cover conforms by using dark colors and a model posing in a "rock out" style to appeal to rock fans. It challenges conventions by featuring a sole female artist rather than multiple images.
The contents page conforms through consistent branding, a letter from the editor, and categorized content similar to Kerrang! magazine. It provides page numbers and variety of smaller artist images organized neatly.
The double page feature conforms with a large central image, eye-catching title, and 3-box article format like Kerrang! to emphasize the focus artist and intrigue readers. Consistent branding is
Q1 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and ...
The document discusses how the media product uses and develops conventions of real media forms. It describes taking inspiration from Rolling Stone magazine for the masthead design, including a selling line like many magazines to attract readers, and using headlines similar to Q magazine. Conventionally, it includes the date, price, and barcode, but develops this by adding the email address. Photos are used conventionally to create eye contact. Splashes and a band index also follow conventions. The ransom note style quote is unconventional but aims to intrigue readers. Cover lines and placement of the title aim to inform and engage readers. Large pictures on their own page and credits for photos are also conventional. More photos were added to be visual and show aspects of the
Q1
Ella Ash analyzed the forms and conventions used in real music magazines like NME and Q magazine to design her own music magazine focused on ska and rocksteady genres. Her magazine both incorporates common conventions such as mastheads, pull quotes, and column text layout, as well as challenges conventions by using a unique color scheme, enlarged artist initials, and spreading content across double pages. This allows her magazine to be recognized while also having its own distinct style that captures the uniqueness of its niche genre focus.

Evaluation - College Magazine
The document evaluates the front cover and contents page of a student magazine. For the front cover, it summarizes that the identifier, masthead, lead image, and inclusion of barcode/date/price make it look professional. However, the lead image or masthead could be resized to better frame the student's head. The contents page works due to following the front cover style, but the article font is difficult to read with many titles. Creating gradients and drop shadows were techniques learned.
Question 1
The document discusses how the media product conforms to and challenges conventions of real classical music magazines. It follows conventions such as having eye-catching mastheads, sale lines relating to images, and "Also in this issue" sections. However, it challenges conventions by using unexpected fonts, changing wording to be more compelling, including diverse models, and adding background on artists. Through balancing conforming and challenging conventions, the media product aims to stand out among other classical magazines while still fitting the genre.
Magazine evaluation
Joshua Irons evaluated his magazine cover design project. He made several changes from the original magazine he was inspired by to avoid plagiarism, such as altering the model's pose and clothing and changing the placement and size of design elements. He represented his target audience of teenagers through the model's casual clothing. Distribution of his magazine could work for magazines like Q, NME or Kerrang that target a similar young rock music audience. He aimed to attract this audience through design choices like font, colors and layout that give off a dark, rock music vibe. Looking back, he felt he improved in areas like image cutting, text readability and using the full space compared to his preliminary work.
My music based magazine evaluation
The document summarizes a presentation analyzing the front cover, contents page, and double-page spread created for a music magazine. It discusses design elements and conventions used on each page. Key points include using bright colors to make the front cover stand out, including social media links and a lower panel on the front cover and contents page for organization, and placing the title and artist name prominently on the double-page spread to draw attention. Conventions from rap magazines were considered while also adding original and challenging elements.
Evaluation Question One.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Layout of my magazine
- 2. Title Cover Lines Cover Lines Cover Lines Barcode Date Price Image This is one idea oh how to layout my magazine, I find this really effective and this is because everything is clear and easy to see therefore, this layout should be clear to the readers but at the same time eye catchy. As my music magazine will be high quality similarly to the magazine ‘Classic Rock’ there’s not going to be much cover lines on the front page of my magazine to indicate this. The layout Includes all the needed Information and it looks well organised Here are the examples of the ‘Classic Rock’ music magazine to indicate the similarities to my production layout
- 3. Title Cover Lines Cover Lines Cover Lines Cover Lines Date Price Barcode Image My magazine is influenced by the ‘Elle’ magazine and therefore, to indicate this even further I decided to do a similar layout to what ‘Elle’ magazine looks like. However, I do not want to make the Rock music magazine too female like therefore Layout 1 was better as it not only showed the high quality of the magazine but it also was more organised. Moreover, I find this layout very alike my Preliminary Task therefore, it would be more appealing to make something else which will explore my technical skills.
