Week one

Last week we received a preliminary task of creating a school magazine front cover and contents page. We began with researching and analysing the codes and conventions of a variety of existing school magazines to gain inspiration and understanding. We then took our own medium shot photographs of each other to use on our own front covers. The entire process was created on Photoshop, such as editing and text inserts; this was followed by the making of a contents page then posting the initial drafts and the end results on here. This initial task was then concluded by an evaluation of our finalised work. Although a week seems like a short space of time to complete that amount of work, I was able to plan well and manage my time because I was aware of the deadline- this ultimately made me work quicker and I am pleased with the results.
