Evaluation - looking back at your preliminary task, what have you learnt in the progression to your full product?

I've learnt alot about different technologies, magazines and photo's since I made my preliminary exercise.

Firstly, I learnt that the quality of camera majorly affects the quality of pictures you get from it, this allowed me to get much better looking photo's than the ones I used in my preliminary exercise, I also payed alot more attention to camera angles in my final product, for example i used a low-angle shot on the cover to suggest he is in control of the situation.

Secondly, I learnt alot about the conventions of music magazines as I progressed through the year. This was by looking at various magazines, paying particular attention to the cover, contents and feature articles. Since the preliminary task I've looked at many different music magazines including: Kerrang!, Total guitar, Rythm, METAL HAMMER, Top of the Pops, Terrorizer and many more.

Finally, I learnt a large amount about the difference in quality from using a more versatile product. For example, sinceusing InDesign my work's qualityand layout has increased dramatically when compared to my prelimary task whic had a very basic layout and very little detail, this was due to the lack of tools on the programme, Microsoft Publisher.

In conclusion, I believe that my work has improved alot since I made my original preliminary task.
