Creativity (This will be added to as the year progresses)

Media skill development essay

In terms of creativity I studied art at school for several years so I had a creative flare for arranging things and making sure colours matched or where photos should go on the magazine. My knowledge I already had helped with keeping to the conventions of magazines for example I knew that I wanted pink on my front cover and so it would have to be on the other pages also but instead of just using pink I used colours that worked well with it such as reds and yellows. As the course progressed it did give me further skills in creativity. I learnt how to use a camera in creative ways to make shots look extremely pleasing for the magazine. I also learnt how to position things in places that worked and followed the conventions of my chosen genre. I knew that camera shots varied but I had no idea of the actual names of them. For example I found that medium close ups and extreme close ups was very helpful for my music magazine.
