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

Well my product during this task has majorly surpassed my preliminary task, as I used a whole range of different tools, I done research, more technological resources which also allowed me to explore different features for example. With Photoshop at first I wasn’t so confident and struggled with adding shades and effects on things. However with this task I have shown a broader knowledge in this. And another technological factor was the use of font websites which allowed me to be able to download representative fonts and fonts what will best suite my work.
Looking at my preliminary task there were effects I liked I the filmstrips however what happened was that it was not accurate and looked quite bad,(Quality Wise).
When I look at my preliminary task I can easily say that I have improved drastically in the skills, fundamentally there are also many things I could have done in order to improve my preliminary task.  I remembered doing research on different magazines, for example mixmag which helped my base my final product, with the preliminary task I didn’t really do this, this is altered my grade for it. 
I looked at mixmag at mixmags which then helped me allocate those conventions which make magazines look pleasing to the eye, especially with the genre i chose, i based my magazine on Dance and partying, Preferably Mixmags genre and i looked at those elements they used for example to vivid colours and badges which Potentially lures the target audience, 
To conclude this I feel that  my work conpared to the preliminary task was exceptional, and there were factors which made my work look much more conventional.
