Evaluation Question Six: Looking back at your Preliminary Task of designing the front page and contents of a school magazine, what do you think you have learnt from it to the final product?
Throughout this coursework, I have learnt many different skills. In my preliminary, I started to use basic skills on Adobe Photoshop and Pages which when producing my final task of the music magazine, the skills were extended as I had more knowledge into the programmes. From my Preliminary, I took parts of the magazine which I thought were effective and developed them on my music magazine, whereas I looked at what I thought didn't work and learnt from it.
Firstly, I created a flat plan of my music magazine, just as I did with my preliminary. Before I did this, I looked at at my prelim task and looked at the positives and negatives, taking parts to use in my music magazine.
In my Preliminary the images I took I believe weren't really effective enough to draw in an audience, due to not taking enough time to take them and not making significant effort. I learnt from this in my final task, planning a time which fitted into everyone's schedules meaning I could experiment more and take more time to take successful images.
Furthermore, in my preliminary I used the slogan 'BE IN THE KNOW!'. I decided that the use of a slogan made it more memorable and catchy. Therefore, in my music magazine I chose to use 'Love POP. Love LIMITED' as it applied to the Masthead and made it clear what genre it was going to enclose.
