As Media Evaluation Question 7

Preliminary Task 1 Music Magazine Front Cover

Looking back t the preliminary task, I feel that I have improved in many aspects; although I at the start I struggled with including the codes and conventions onto my own magazine.I struggled to edit certain pictures because of the background in which I took the images in made it difficult for me to edit the images and choose an appropriate background. I had to use a solid colour; which didn’t always go well with the main image and sometimes looked very plain and boring and unrealistic.

I also learnt how use Photoshop properly; even though I used Photoshop in my preliminary task I was very tentative and was not very creative or adventurous with Photoshop. You can tell with my final product I was more comfortable and adventurous with the tools I used which made the entire product look more realistic and professional.

Conclusion

Overall I believe that there is a significant improvement from my preliminary tasks due to the fact I learnt how to use Photoshop more effectively which gave my final product a professional look.
