Question 7 - Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

For a start I didn't use PaintShop in my preliminary task so I developed my PaintShop skills with my Music Magazine although I didn't use many functions that PaintShop has to offer.
     I don't believe I failed in my preliminary tasks however I experimented more with InDesign for my Music Magazine which allowed me to achieve a more sophisticated look, however I believe that look was needed for the Music Magazine.
     There is a wider variety of text fonts in my Music Magazine compared to my Student Magazine, although both have a constant colour scheme throughout. However my Student Magazine has more images than the Music Magazine.
     The contents of the Music Magazine was also more sophisticated than the one in my preliminary task as it just contains images and a contents but I did highlight the cover stories in my Music Magazine as I did in my first task.
     All in all I have learnt and extended skills in PaintShop and Indesign and managed to achieve two different magazines that would be acceptable and attractive for each audience.
