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

I haven’t really gained any technological skills from point Prelim to final product, as many programs I used I already had a sound knowledge in.

I’ve learned a lot of information about the magazine industry, that has helped me create a sound magazine concept. Without this knowledge I don’t think my magazine would be it the standard it at.

Interview writing skills – I’ve developed skills in writing interviews in a alternative style to the standard question answer format.

Post-modernism in-the-context of the magazine industry – I knew quite a bit about post-modernism from my art studies (I was doing personal studies on the subject for my Art A level), but the subject is very large and I gained some direct knowledge relating to the media industry.

Typographical styles - I’ve learnt a lot about typography styles used in different magazine and conventions related to them.
