Evaluation 7 DRAFT


7. Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

I have learnt that when it comes to taking photo's it's not a simple 5 minute task, when comparing photos from my preliminary work and final magazine you will see the difference when it comes to the time taken in editing them. I didn't want my images to seem plain in my magazine like in my preliminary work, or like some actually music magazines, I wanted to give my images more of an edge, which i feel i have achieved. I went from just cutting the image out for my preliminary work to going into a large amount of detail when it came to editing my music magazine pictures, using the internet to help me find a step by step which would help me create an aged look for my pictures using photoshop. I also presented my models in the correct clothing for my music magazine, having them wear skinny jeans with band tees and denim jackets to create an upcoming rock artist look, whereas with my preliminary work I didn't take much notice of his clothes and just focused more on the pose to help present a cool laid back look for the type of article he would appear in. This has taught me that costume is the most important thing when it comes to presenting your magazine. My target audience might ignore the magazine if they believe it to connect to a different genre and not what they enjoy.

  1. Amber, this is promising. You should add what you have learnt about the importance of research and planning. Also what you have learnt about using photoshop.
