QUESTION 7: LOOK BACK AT YOUR PRELIMINARY
TASK, WHAT DO YOU FEEL YOU HAVE LEARNT IN THE
PROGRESSION IT TO THE FINAL PRODUCT?
I used the school name (Priory) and incorporated it
into the word “priority”. This is a rather cheesy and
uninventive masthead. When I moved to the music
magazine I called a blues and jazz magazine “Blues
News” which is far more inventive and also catchy,
which fits well with the masthead criteria. As well as
this, the font used is far better in the music magazine
and wasn’t made on “cooltext.com” which is where I
made the school magazine masthead.
The pictures I used
for the preliminary
task were taken on a
video camera and had
a very low megapixel.
However, the pictures
I took for the music
magazine were taken
on a DSLR camera so
are of a higher quality.
This dramatically
changed the look of
my magazine as they
made it look more
professional. So I
learnt to use a better
camera to get better
quality pictures that
show off detail.
My skills within Photoshop in general improved
dramatically. I went from having next to no
understanding of Photoshop (evident in my preliminary
task) to being able to help others in my class. A few
quick shortcuts definitely helped me in making my
magazine look as professional as possible. For
example the CTRL + a letter shortcuts were especially
helpful in producing my products as quickly as possible.
As mentioned in my bubble diagram ain answer to
question 6 the use of the quick selection tool definitely
came in handy when selecting people and objects and
taking them out of their original backgrounds.
My first Double Page Spread was done on Word
and it meant I had to adapt and try and use
different tools I hadn’t used before. For example I
had-believe it or not- never had to turn the
background a different colour and for my initial
piece I had a blue background. I eventually
decided to do my DPS on Photoshop as there was
more available in terms of editing and it gave me
more freedom.
