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

The preliminary task of making a college magazine has helped a lot as it has been like a rough draft and since then I have made great progress and have become more familiar with the software which has helped me improve.  One of the most useful parts of doing the preliminary task was the feedback I received the teacher which told me both my strengths and weaknesses and where I could improve apon certain aspects.  Another part that has helped was that I wasn’t introduced straight away to the final piece but I could instead practise and hone my skills on this preliminary task.  I got to become used to taking photos and editing them in photoshop as well as being introduced to proegrammes that I have never used before e.g. Scribd, Prezi etc.
