When i first created my preliminary task i had never tried creating a magazine on pages before so i was only using the very basic tools on Pages. I imported a picture as my background and inserted a text box as the title. Comparing what i was like then, to now has made me realise how much my technical ability has improved and how much i have actually learnt throughout this process. By looking at my school magazine you can immediately see my lack on knowledge in they way a front cover should be Laid out as well as it being boring and not very attractive from an audiences point of veiw. I have also learnt that you don't have to give away a lot on the front cover to attract an audience, by adding exciting fonts and an eye-catching image you will easily catch anyones attention. On my school magazine i didn't involve a bar code or price so by researching different magazine labels i had more knowledge to help me make mine look as professional as possible. Overall I am proud of the progress i have made and the skills i have picked up along the way.
