Looking back on the preliminary task,what do you feel you have learnt in the

progression to the full product?

My final product clearly shows more conventions then my preliminary product, starting with my masthead ‘JHEEZ’ is more memorable as its a slang word used with many teenagers were as ‘SFCS’ has no importance to my core audience therefore it wouldn’t be very memorable.My cover lines on my preliminary product crosses onto my main image giving the image less of an

impact, however on my final product it shows that the main image is the greatest attraction being in the centre of the cover and also giving the illusion of the image jumping out. The colour scheme is a purple on m preliminary task which is fine as its a bold colour but the sizes of each are different and not the same . The price of my magazine in my latest magazine is clearly stated at the bottom of the page above the barcode which is also visible to see where as on my preliminary product there is no price given again not following the codes and conventions of what I researched.

For my contents page the word ‘contents’ on my school magazine doesn’t follow the colour scheme as its purple and black and the word contents is in a dark blue this could be argued that this is like this as it stands out. My background is black on my music magazine this fits as it follows my colour scheme.

I believe I have learnt an awful lot about the different technologies in creating a magazine also the time it takes to create a magazine. Using the hardware and software has enhanced my skills and I believe my final product is an improvement to my preliminary product. I’ve enjoyed every aspect in making my final product.
