To complete this magazine i have had 7 months, during this time i have had to manage my time, this includes setting deadlines in which a certain part of the process has to finished, however these deadlines have not always been kept as there have been complications as the photgraphs took longer to be taken, due to working round my models schedual. This has then caused other problems as i could not start my magazine without the photographs, which in effect limited my time to complete it. Time management on this project i found difficult as i had the pressure of other college subjects to also complete, which meant that less time could be focused on my magazine, however i did use time outside of lessons to try keep to deadlines that i had set myself. I started my magazine with basic IT skills in which during the process of completing the magazine i have developed such as using Microsoft Publisher and each of the programs used in this that was not taught at GCSE level, an example is wrap points around an image. I used a digital camera to take the images for the magazine front cover and contents. From this i used Adobe Photoshop program to manipulate the images, i change the brightness and contrast to give an edgy look to the image, as i wanted to percieve an punk rock appearance, in which i believe i achieved, i did this to to most of the images, however on some i added tints of colour in certain areas.
