My production skills have developed during this project through a greater understanding of colors as well as how to use fonts appropriately. My color understanding has increased because before, I did not know how to properly choose colors that complemented each other to make a beautifully designed magazine. However, now I know all about analogous, monochromatic, split complimentary, and double split complimentary colors, and how to properly implement them to make a professional looking magazine. Also, before I did not understand that having many different fonts on a document or on my magazine was extremely distracting, but now I understand that you have to choose one to two different fonts for a document or magazine so that it looks professional and organized. Not only that, but I also learned how to use Canva. Canva was a wonderful website that showed many different templates for how a magazine was supposed to look and allowed you to edit them to make them your own. Through the use of this website, I realized the importance of organization when creating your final magazine. Not only that, but I also learned valuable skills that I use in my daily life now, after the production of the magazine. One of the skills I learned is how to manage my time wisely. Every time I was given a deadline, I would plan my week accordingly to allot myself enough time to create a quality product in a timely fashion. In the beginning of the week, I would take my pictures and brainstorm how I wanted my product to look. Then, I would work on the magazine itself and tweak it until I thought it was perfect. I always completed my work the day before it was due and turned it in. I also improved my writing skills as well. I have never been confident of my writing, but now, after working on the magazine for so long, I learned how to properly format sentences and now I am not so scared of writing in daily life.
