Reflecting on AS Media:

Last year I studied media at AS, and by doing so i ended up creating my own Music magazine. In order to do this i used a number of new programs and software in order to make my coursework and final product look as professional and media rich as possible. Examples of these new programs include; photoshop, prezi, animoto and Blogger. Below is what i found my strengths and weaknesses were.

Strengths:
-      I feel as though my main strength was designing and creating my final music magazine product, as I feel as though I am quite a creative person and this is one of the areas in which I achieved the most marks.
-      Writing the article for the Double Page Spread was one of my strengths as I enjoy creating a story and it was a fun and different experience to put it in the form of an exclusive interview.

Weaknesses:
-      One of my weaknesses was writing the evaluation questions, as I was unmotivated to do them and I feel like they were very rushed due to the strict deadlines.
-       I struggled to remember all the vocabulary and terms that i was given, therefore had a hard time applying enough of to my work. Because of this, i feel as though i dropped a few marks.

Below is what my final products look like for my AS coursework:





Overall i enjoyed AS Media which is why i have chose to do it again in A2, it was a very creative and fun subject to study and i am ready to learn more.
