Preliminary Task Pictures

Preliminary Task Pictures
 




In this task I was given the instruction to produce the front and contents page of a new school/college magazine, featuring a photograph of a student in medium close-up. The pictures above the text where taken by myself and I will be using one of each photo I took to work on my preliminary task to make a front and contents page.




















Preliminary Task - Front Page Draft



In this task I was given an instruction to produce a front page of a new school/college magazine, so what I did to overcome this until I make my main task was to do a rough copy of my cover for my magazine. My rough copy is not 100% but it gives me an idea of what I can or won't include. By doing this I was able to come up with new ideas for my main task and creativity for a good quality piece of worn on my main task.

Natures Finest Magazine

In this task I got requested to make a draft nature magazine so i could get use to making magazines and learning the techniques used and the software behind it. Firstly my media teacher gave us permission to go out of school to take a few pictures on nature and when we come back we'll have to make a nature magazine of the pictures taken.
My 'Natures Finest' Magazine I created

For this task I used Adobe Photoshop to produce my magazine and learnt various amount of new things and by this I also developed my Photoshop skill. I learnt/developed my skills in using filters, brightness, contrast, how to change the size of an image and also the meaning of using layers. This was a fun task to do and it was also giving me knowledge at the same time whilst learning what to add in magazines to make it look appealing and more professional.
