I have learnt a lot about the programs and how they work throughout the course of the tasks, so from learning more as I went along my music magazine is of a higher standard than my school magazine.
This is my final school magazine cover, it looks really plain and simple and doesn't look very professional. There is no barcode (but on a school magazine you don't need one), there are no cover lines or puffs to show what is going to be included in the magazine and there is no colour coordination. There are white boarders around my title and logo which makes it look messy and untidy.
Not a lot of planing went into my front cover and contents pages as I wasn't sure of what I wanted my magazine to look like and I didn't know what I wanted to include.
A lot more thought, planning and research went into my music magazine, as I knew more on what was expected of me and I wanted a better out come than the one I got from my school magazine.
There is a lot more detail in my music magazine as there is a barcode, cover lines, puffs and sell lines on my front cover. More thought went into my masthead as i was trying to create the theme and genre of country on my magazine.
I spent more time researching the type of music magazine i wanted to produce so i could see what was successful and what was not, on a music magazine.
When making this magazine i had a lot more confidence with the programs and sites in which i had to use to complete the task. Which helped a lot when it came to actually making the final magazine cover, contents and double page spread.
Also by having more time to complete the music magazine helped so i had more time to research the genres and make the magazine, and i was able to add more detail to my own research.
Over all I learnt that knowing how to use the programs and having primary and secondary research to look back on is key in making a good quality magazine. I am happy with how my music magazine turned out and I think it reflects well from the work in which i produced.
