Double page spread final

For my double page spread very little was changed other than some of the font sizes, the biggest change was the 'Review' sub heading which was made a lot larger so that it stands out more when you first see the page.

contents final

This is my final contents page, as you can see it has been changed as the subcategorys have been made more clear without the background boxes. There are also more images that have been added so the audience have a clearer idea of what is inside the magazines pages. The title of the page has been copied to have the 'your say' part stand out and make the whole page look more interesting. The subcategory with the box background gives the page more colour so that it doesnt look boring.

Contents page analysis

For my front cover there was a complete idea change after I had my review from the first idea. For my first idea I had all the different subcategorys on different boxes so you could easily see all the different sections that would be inside. This needs to be changed as the most important subcategory needs to stand out on the page from the rest and this can happen by using a background.

Front Cover changes

This is my finished front cover after the changes suggested from my feedback. I have changed a few pieces to make sure that it looks perfect. One of the changes that I have made is I have added a few pictures of some prizes so that the audience can see more of what is inside on the front cover before they buy it. Another change that I have made is some of the text sizes are different as some parts were not as bold and clear as they needed to be.

I am now happy with my finished front cover editing after I have changed a few bits.

Front cover analysis

The front cover of my magazine is a bright and interesting page, although there are some improvements that can be made. The page needs some extra pictures perhaps of prizes to give it some different colours and more stuff for the audience to look at and so they can see a closer look of whats inside. The Magazine name should be thicker so that it stands out more on the page.

Conclusion

conclusion

 

overall for my magazine I rate my performance as being successful as I have chosen a target audience with an appropriate size audience and a good age range between the youngest and oldest. I have drawn in a large crowd from making my product because I have made a magazine that fits their needs. I have used the appropriate technologies to the right standard and created a product that will sell when it needs to.
