So far, I am very pleased with the way that my magazine is turning out. I have finished drafting my pages so to see the media coming together is great. The pages are working together in that they carry the same colour scheme and certain fonts and details and they are definitely portraying the genre of pop. This is being accomplished through my images, colours and layouts. Although I have drafted all of my pages, I do still have improvements to be made. For example, I could take the front cover star image and edit it even more to make it pop and small features such as line spacing need to be changed.

As well as composing a piece of media, I have also learnt many transferable skills such as:

• Digital design skills: I have learnt how to use apps such as photoshop and Indesign to make my magazine. I will be able to use these skills in the future when editing photos or creating anything digitally.
• Communication: I have communicated with my peers during photo shoots and when actually creating my media. This has been useful when looking for improvements as everyone has their own taste so getting feedback has been extremely beneficial.
• Organisation: I have had to be very organised especially when planning and doing photoshoots. This skill is useful in all areas of life.
