2. Overall I am really happy with my final magazine and feel
like I have improved from my preliminary activity
magazine massively. I have learnt what how to adapt the
aesthetics of my magazine to please and attract my
target audience. I feel like my final magazine has
improved significantly in comparison to the prelim due to
my present knowledge with adobe photoshop
from practising and creating my preliminary. I feel
confident now photo manipulating and using the software
to create media. I also think that my final magazine has
improved so much because of all the time spent
researching and planning which majorly contributed to
the finished magazine and how well it turned out. I am
really happy with how my magazine has turned out
compared to the prelim activity, a lot more time went into
this, I feel it looks a lot more professional and realistic.

4. Another reason that my magazine has
improved is because of the time spent on it,
for the preliminary task we only had a few
days to complete it with no research or
planning whereas for the actual magazine
there was so much time put into it also prior
to creating it because of research and
planning then the time I had to actually
create the magazine.

6. I feel my
photography has improved which contributed to
how well my magazine turned out compared to my
prelim, I learnt how to use the lighting better when
taking photos and position my model to get the best
results for the shots possible. I did take so many more
photos for my real magazine compared to the prelim
where I only had 5 shots. I redid my photo shoot a
couple of times to get the exact pictures I wanted
and I am glad I did it as both my models look exactly
how I wanted them too in my final magazine. I feel
now my images are much more appropriate for my
audience and work well with the layout and colour
scheme.
7. For my final magazine I
found lots of inspiration
through doing the
research and planning, I
found that looking at other
popular magazines
already on the market
really helped me get a
feel for what looked good
and what people liked for
certain audiences and
genres seeing what would
sell.
