Media Studies - Overall Assessment / Progress

This week has passed by really quickly, media studies is becoming more and more interesting and enjoyable for I learn a whole range of different techniques and information about it, along with updating my blog with everything that I'm currently doing. This includes:

• Creating my school magazine on a new software known as "inDesign" and learning how to use the different key features on it which will hopefully help me to master it and get use to it as much as Photoshop CS3.
• Researching example magazines which relate to the magazine I'm creating and finding out what conventions I must use to make my magazine attractive as my examples which have eye catching quotes, titles, sub headlines, captions etc.
• Updating my blog with information which I can look back on to use as evidence when starting a new project, also the history of my blog will show how much I've gradually improved in media studies for the posts that were previously posted is previous work that I've done while on the course. Even though "it's not about the quantity but the quality"

Overall my progress on the course I believe is going really well because I know how to create a media magazine cover & contents page, when researching media based magazines or information I can find it independently and when taking pictures I make sure I have a precise camera shot and lighting. I look forward to what else the course has to offer, and I'll be updating my blog with all the info I learn and explaining the difficulties I have and import all the work I produce on my blog - P4trick
