This is my review of Kerrang magazine, I labeled the key features of the magazine which will help me when Im making my own magazine. The features I have described are the contents page, double page spread and other features such as the barcode which are less important but still needed in a magazine. This will help me when making my own magazine.

This is my final school prospectus, I have used text, photos and backgrounds. This is going to help me for the magazine I have to create because I've now learnt the skills in photoshop that I didn't know before. My magazine is worth 50% worth of my final AS so it is important to know what I'm doing. I feel that this task has set me up and allowed me to be ready to create a professinal magazine. I feel if I didn't do this task then the magazine I'm going to create wont be as professional as it will be now I know what I'm doing.

Today is my first pratical lesson on photoshop. As I have now collected all of my photos that I needed I was able to start my work. I'm finding it very difficult. It is a software that I have never used before the tutorial and I am getting frustrated with it. Although in the tutorial we was taught the main skills there is many to remember and it is much harder when trying to merge photos together as in the tutorial I was only using the one photo. I have made a start but at this rate I don't think I will be able to get it finished unless I increase my skill level with the tools on photoshop.
