Transferable skills:

• Transferable skills are those that you develop as you progress through employment, education or training.

Transferable skills I have learnt…

•  Critical analysis: I’ve had to ask for feedback on my work and take into account the feedback to improve my work
• Communication: I have had to communicate with my models to make sure I could take photos and ensure they had the correct costumes, and I have had to communicate with my teacher to receive feedback and also discuss ideas for my magazine
• Managing time: I’ve also learnt how to manage my time effectively, for example setting times for photo shoots and making sure not to waste time so that the shoots could be completed
• Teamwork: I’ve learnt how to work in a team and share out tasks, such as bringing in costumes and being a model

So far, I think there are many aspects of my magazine that have gone really well. For example:

• The outcome of my first photo shoot was good and helped to make my magazine look sharp and fitted the genre.
• My masthead design is very fitting to my narrative

However there are a couple of things to improve upon:

• I need to add in some rockabilly icons on my contents page and front cover to keep my chosen genre clear to my audience
• I also need to make some of the writing clearer on my double page spread as the background makes it difficult to read
