In the preliminary stage, I was not as confident with the programmes I had available to me to use. I was also not very well informed about the music magazine industry.
I now know of many different programmes I can use that are available for production and editing. I am aware of different forms and conventions of music magazines and of magazines in general. However, I know of what limitations I can be faced with in the making of further magazine based products.
I am more aware of how to attract an intended audience, through specific uses of things such as images, colours, layout and style.
