What have I learned from looking

at last year’s student work?

That I need the picture to look professional, in the photos, the fonts, the layout and design to give me top marks in this assignment. I know after looking at other students work that having a good colour scheme and using all the conventions are essential

How will I apply this to my own work?

I will make the pictures to look professional, in the photos, the fonts, the layout and design to give me top marks in this assignment. I will use a good fitting colour scheme to the genre, and make sure I use all the essentials my magazine needs.
