Evaluation Q7

Q7: Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?  

In this task i have gained many skills that i never had coming into the project. the most evident being the improvement in my Photoshop skills. early on in the project i was very evident that my skills in Photoshop were very limited as the work i was producing was at a very low quality compared to now were my work, i believe, is at a good quality. through this task i have also gained a much better understanding of magazines and their convention. before starting the task i never really read magazines and had hardly no understanding of the vocabulary, like cover line, masthead etc but now i have a more in depth understanding of magazine terminology. in the project i learnt a lot about photography. composition, framing, angles, lighting. over the coarse of this project is is very evident that my photography skills have improved. as a creativity orientated persons these skills will become very useful in the future.
