The process I first took was researching to existing magazine on the market and a college magazine, I then began to brain storm and plan my ideas for my magazine and contents page. I felt the research helped me gain a better perspective on existing magazines and made me challenge it conventionally, and also following there existing techniques as advice. But if I were doing this again I would have gone into much more dept in the analysis and research looking at many different types of magazines and researching a lot more in my target audience and their stereotypical backgrounds to improve my magazine. I have learnt a variety of different skills while doing my preliminary task, I have discovered the use of adobe photo shop and in design c5, although i found it very difficult and only used it to edit the effects on the main image. Although I have used other technologies to my advantage such as memory stick, internet, PowerPoint, my Kodak camera and use of e-mail, as ways of connecting and sending information to and from college. I found these technologies very useful at producing my work although I do feel I could gain a lot more out of these technologies especially photo shop and in design as I feel I could use them to my advantage. From my audience feed back they were impressed but discussed it was not a quality magazine but great as a first attempt, I feel the magazine has to be much more professional and realistic and up to standards of the general market. Overall I feel I did very well for my first attempt but could of used the technologies to more of my advantage and gone into more detail in the research, I would change this if I could do it differently.
