Preliminary Task

At the start of the year for my AS Media Studies, i was assigned a task, which was to create a magazine for students. I chose to do it on helping children from year 11 adjusting into 6th form life. This was the first time i was doing something of the sort, by starting off like this it helped me learn new skills, i learnt a few brief conventions of magazines in order to help me with constructing my own magazine. However, my Preliminary Task was not too much of a success, my final magazine helped me to use many different skills.
We were told to use Publisher in order to do our Preliminary Task, whereas i did my final magazine using PhotoShop.
That is the main difference, and by using different programmes you can see a huge change in the quality of both my magazines.
Throughout the process of this course i have learnt to use PhotoShop and also developed on my camera skills, and learnt about many different magazines and how much thought goes into every single little detail which is put at the front or inside the magazine.
