Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in progression from it to the final product?

Looking back on my preliminary task I think I have learnt that creating a magazine is harder than it originally seems, I thought that creating the magazine would be simpler and have less complications. When creating the flat plans of my magazine I had and image in my head of exactly what I wanted to create, making this was frustrating as I didn't fully know how I would create the image I had. I have learnt how to take a better photograph, how to make a magazine look professional, how to use the basics of Photoshop and how to look into my genre in more detail. When I first decided I wanted choose disco as a genre I didn't have any idea of what music it was, all I knew was that roller skates and Afros were a convention of my genre. I have learnt a lot about my genre and the history of disco and where it is now.
