I believe when looking back at my preliminary task to my full media product, their was a lot more work than I thought, in a short space of time. In my opinion there is a lot you have to plan to publish a media magazine successfully, which includings time magagement, planning and organisation, different types of skills and new technologies to use, the types of conventions you use. All of these are really important to think about and plan carefully when making a final media product. But in my preliminary task, the different conventions that I used, the layout, the colours etc... did not matter in to much detail as this was just a rough magazine to help us to understand how to produce a magazine and also to learn a bit more of how to use the different new media's like Quark Express and photoshop.
Time magagement was the thing I think that let me down. I was taking too long in my planning and preparation for my magazine that I wasnt watching the time carefully. If I had more time in my magazine production, a lot more time would of gone into the layout. Iam happy that id finished my magazine, that was one positive, but I know that it could of been better. Other positives about the production of my magazine is learning more about the new technologies. Photoshop was the main new technology that I couldnt use and I found it difficult to work with. But using it for the production of my contents page has helped me to understand how to use it and now i do, it is a lot easier to work with.
The question on institution is missing. There is a basic understanding of forms and conventions. There is some evidence of a proficient understanding of how technologies have been used to help in the project. There is some evidence of a proficient of how social groups have been represented especially when discussing the cover star. There is minimal evaluation of how the product has successfully appealed to the target audience, the response seems more suited to question 1 and what evaluation there is, is not based on actual responses. There is some proficient awareness of their development from the preliminary task. There is a basic ability to communicate effectively and minimal use of ITC in the presentation of the project.
