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

Compared to my preliminary task my main task is more developed in photo shop skills and has a more professional outcome, this is because for my preliminary task I used paint to make my front cover as I didn’t understand photo shop. My photo shop skills have improved as I can now easily create pieces that look presentable. I found it hard at first to crop images from their backgrounds and replace the image to a new background. I found this really hard to start off with until I practised and made progress. I experimented with different fonts and merged pictures together. Compared to my preliminary task my front cover for my magazine has improved compared to my student magazine as I have creatively applied more to my cover and have different layers to my cover whereas my student cover has a main picture with text in speech bubbles.
