Looking back at your pre-lim task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression
from it to the full product?
From my pre-lim task i set myself targets to make sure the mast head is behind the image because that is common in magazines, to darken the background and create a shadow effect and to manipulate the images more effectively. I believe I achieved these targets because in the double page spread i and to make the main image brighter in order to see it better which was effective and on my front cover i made the image brighter and used the spot healer tool to make most of the spots vanish. In addition i managed to put the image in front of the masthead and covering up some of the 'P' which i think make the magazine look very professional. My time management was very good and if i had to catch up with work i would do so in my own time. I think my strengths were creativity when coming up with content and layouts for the magazine and i really liked the look of my double page spread with the two different shades of grey. in terms of weaknesses i think i could have made my front cover a lot more professional looking. If i were to do this task again, instead of using a plain background with a gradient on, i would add a bit of texture to it to make it look like a wall. In my opinion I think my final product was very successful.
From my pre-lim task i set my self targets to put the mast head behind the main image which i have succeeded in and also to make my background darker to make the writing easier to read which i was also successful in doing on not only my front cover but followed this on my contents page and double page spread. In addition i added a gradient to my front cover and double page spread to create a shadow effect behind my main images which makes it look more professional. Photoshop made this very easy to do by being able to manipulate images very easily and effectively.
