I feel that I have progressed a lot since doing my preliminary task. I feel this because when doing my preliminary task I did not feel comfortable constructing my sixth form magazine. I was unsure of what to do on some of my preliminary tasks which did not help me in some situations.Creating my sixth form magazine in my preliminary task wasn’t the best as I didn’t grasp the idea of what I had to do. I had little time to plan out my magazine which was bad as when it came to constructing the actual sixth form magazine I didn’t have a base design to work from.However, in my main task I felt much more comfortable with creating my music magazine as I had planned this all out and stayed to my time management.

On my front cover, I felt that I achieved more through doing my main task than my preliminary task. The photo’s I took for my preliminary task front cover were really disappointing. I felt that I needed to take more but I did not have anymore time left to do so. With my main task front cover, I took more time to plan my front cover, making sure I knew what colours and fonts I needed to use. I also planned out what images I planned to take, for example, where I wanted to take my photos and what I wanted to take photos of.Planning it out really helped me during my main task and helped me keep to my deadlines.

On my contents page for my preliminary task, I was disappointed with the overall design of it. The photos I took were really the only good thing about my contents page for this task.However, in my main task I had more time to take photos and design the overall layout of where everything would be placed on my contents page. The contents page for my preliminary task seemed bland and boring where as the contents page for my music magazine in my main task is colourful and would attract a customer to read such magazine.
