Question 7

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learn in progression from it to the full product?

  • The cover lines on the college magazines are bigger than other and that was good because I focused on the cover story, so I did the same on the music magazine I slightly made the main cover line in the middle but on the college magazine the main cover line was at the side on the page.

  • I have more cover lines on the college magazine and less on the music magazine I guess I learnt that sometimes less is more and it puts the focus on the main cover line and the model.

  • The model I have used for both magazines they both have eye contact with the audience I thought this was very good and I made this in music magazine.

  • For the college magazine I used my phone which wasn't the best of quality but I learnt how to use the professional cameras and my pictures improved.

  • Also my colour scheme improved I was a bit all over the place with the colours because I didn't exactly know where to start and I didn't know how the college magazines work and stuff.

  •  My contents page on the college magazine was very boring in my opinion and I should of added more so that is why in my music magazine I added a lot more to the contents page and it also wasn't single page like the college magazine it was a double page spread.

  • I learnt how to use Photoshop better to edit my front cover much more neater at the star I was a bit confused making the front cover cause I wasn't familiar with Photoshop or InDesign so that is something that changed in the music magazine because I was more familiar with the software's.
