This is my front cover for my school magazine and contents page .For this, i tried to achieve a successful and realistic magazine cover and make a good contents page . However, this didn't happen and after looking at this front cover now i am not very impressed with it. I did like the way i used the colours in the front cover and the contents page which are also the schools emblem colours. I like the way the gradient works with the colour of the text as well, so that went to plan. Everything on the front cover is deliberate work and nothing is coincidental as i wanted to use the colours fonts and pictures you see, although on the contents some some coincidental work happened where i messed around with gradients and got the black margin on the page, i liked the look of it so i decied to keep it.Unfortunately, i am new and inexperienced to the programs we used and that was a huge setback in making work look decent and realistic like i wanted it to.
I also notice they look quite boring and appear to have not much effort put into it. I tried to overcome some problems for a better design but in the end chose to go for a simpler design. I have learned that media production is not as easy as it looks and takes quite a lot of know how, time and skill in order to create a realistic magazine . After looking back at how i worked on this i am not satisfied in the slightest because i know i would've done a lot better if i took the time and was willing to learn how to use the programs more efficiently.

After comparing my work to other students in my class i must say im not overly pleased with my own work as everybody else seems to have spent more time on their work and theall look more creative than mine. For example, the OCR version looks like it was planned out well rather than just rushing into the work with no idea what to you are going to do. I also like the use of colour and images because they work well together and dont clash.
For the next task i will work a lot harder and put in more time and effort in order to have a successful piece of work which i will be proud of. I have learnt that i must take my work more seriously if i want to achieve what i want my work to look like because i know i have the ability to produce good pieces of work.
