Throughout this whole practical process I think that I have gained and learnt alot of skills. The key skills that i have learnt have been using IT skills such as, Photoshop and publisher, working as a team and being able to manage my time efficently. The most important skill that I have gained has been using photoshop as I was not able to use it properly before, as you can see by the school magazine I created before. I learnt how to manipultate the pictures to fit my target audience which I found quite difficult as I'm not familiar with the target audience I chose. Furthermore, I had to research about my target audience (Indie/Rock) by going to steryotypical places like Camden. This allowed me to experience a different enviroment which helped me further myself as a media student. Learning to time magaging has been exceptionally important to me, as normally I find it difficult. However, I overcame this and kept to my target dates and deadlines which proved that I was able to use my time well. A disadvantage of time wasting was using photoshop, it took up a lot of time than I thought it would, which means I was able to work under pressure well. Finally, being able to work as a team member was a good experience as we were able to share all our ideas together and crete the same house style magazine.
Overall, making my magazine was an enjoyable process which helped me learn key skills which can help me now and in the future.
