5. Overall Improvements
On the whole I believe my main task is far better and
professional in terms of a real media product compared to
my preliminary task, it is stronger in terms of colours and
composition.
I also believe it is stronger in terms of words as I feel
through the language it reaches out to the target
audience as well as I have not used to many intellectual
words, I have made it so my target audience can directly
relate to my media product and understand the content
included.
6. Summary
On the whole the progression I have made from my preliminary task to
my main task has made me value the importance of the use of colours,
design and content as all these factors combine together to engage the
target audience of my media product to buy it. As when a product is
created it should always be created with its target audience in mind as
if a product is created without the target audience views or interest
involved then it could eventually become a loss.
I believe that my factor to success has been Photoshop as all the
colours and designs were created through this software which has
given me authority to impress my main consumer which is my target
audience
