3. I believe that my production skills developed a lot during this process of making my own magazine and working towards the final result of my magazine - Cash kids. I had some experiences working in Gimp before but it is not really the same as photoshop since photoshop is more complex and difficult in my opinion. Neither did i work in illustrator or indesign before starting media this year. It has been a bit difficult working with these programs but it has most of all been interesting learning new programs.
When I did my preliminary work for the blog I learned new things about compositions of photos and the names of the different elements. If i look back on my blog and look at my first “photo-shoot” on Expression and pose emotions portrayed in photos and at my final work for the magazine i can see a big difference in the way i chose to use the different compositions and the elements with shadows then versus how i use my new knowledge for my final work.
The Research and Planning stage was a bit more difficult since i had not done any analyzes before of either magazine or film extracts but the more of them i did the easier it was, practice makes it easier. This stage also helped me with the different camera angles and specific terminology such as props and costumes that helped me planning my magazine and also the specific element used to create a magazine, like masthead and table of contents and what was supposed to be included on the double spread.
Coursework and development was the most interesting stage of all of them and also the stage where i improved the most mostly because I got to compose my own magazine and play around as much as I wanted and find ways that would make the magazine even better and I made it exactly how I wanted it to be but also because got to work in indesign. When i created my own magazine i realized how much time it actually takes to creating a magazine since you have to play around with the different fonts until you find the perfect one , the composition of the photos , the colors that you want and where to put the article titles.
