THE PROGRESSION FROM IT TO
THE FULL PRODUCT?

4. HARDWARE SKILLS
I have became more aware of how to take my photos e.g. rule of
thirds and which way the lighting is so that my image looks better and
things like the back ground, if it is a busy back ground you wont be
able to do a lot with the image unlike if you are using a plain white
back ground you can always cut the image out on photoshop using
the magic wand tool.
5. INDUSTRY SKILLS
I know understand the importance of target audience and research.
Also everything has to link for example the colours and font must be
the same on every page. The images have to relate to the target
audience for example for a magazine to sell more copies it must have
a popular artist on the front cover to attract their fans.
6. PHOTOSHOP
My skills on Photoshop has improved by a lot. I have learnt how to
use the stamp tool which was essential on my front cover because
part of it was cut off. I have edited my pictures to a higher quality
editing the levels and curves in more depth.
