Looking back at your preliminary

task, what do you feel you have

learnt in the progression from it to

the full product?

From the first thing that I produced (York College magazine) I feel like my skills in PhotoShop have improved a lot. Also, I have chosen a specific genre and stuck to it, creating an appropriate house style and colour scheme which fits the genre. For the College magazine I didn’t arrange cover lines or tag lines efficiently, whereas ACID magazine is well planned out and thought through by highlighting specific parts that will attract the audience.

I feel like I have progressed the

most in PhotoShop. This is

because my skills have

improved to do a lot of

previously difficult things.

I learnt how to totally re-colour a

photo and then convert it into

black and white.

I also figured out how to blend

layers together and change the

opacity so that I could create

my own album art for my band

which would entice the

audience.
