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

It is clear to me that i have learnt quite abit since the prelimanary task. I feel that i have improved on my judgement of quality and knowing how to structure magazines alot better. I also feel that i have learnt how important planning and preperation is. In the preliminary task i didn't really have a plan, i just went out with a camera and took some pictures as i went along. But with the main task i did some research and found out alot about what hip hop magazines are about and what they look like and i think this is clear in my work as people have said that it does look like a hip hip magazine.
An example of my planning was that when we had access to the studio i took in pictures of examples of hip hop magazine covers which gave us a few ideas that we can build on and hip hop photo's were taken. This i think helped tremendously as it helped us know how to pose and the expressions to make which was very important in making the character what he was.

In the preliminary task i dont think i put enough care into taking my pictures, i think it would have been a better peice of work if the pictures were better and planned as i think its the pictures that make the magazine.
