Final magazine

After recieving lots of feedback, I have changed a lot of my magaznie to make it appear a lot more professional. Below is my final magazine.

 

 

 

 

 

Changes to my album cover

I needed to change the album cover colour scheme as the font originally was too dark.. I also needed to make the image of the band slightly darker so that you were able to distinguish the bands faces. Although it is a slight change it is going to make a big difference for my final maagzine.

Feedback from peers about my draft magazine

I took to facebook and got some feedback about my draft maagzine and how I could improve it. I wanted to get other points of view from peers so that I could chnage anything which didn't appeal to people.

 

 After looking at the feedback I feel that I have enough knowledge on what I need to do to improve my magazine.

Draft magazine

Here is the draft of my magazine:

 

 

          Front cover

 

 

        Contents Page 

 

                        Double page spread

 



Creation process for my magazine

Creating a puff for my front cover

I want to add a puff so that it will draw the reader into wanting to read the magazine. From feedback from my peers about what content I should use in my magazine, some of them said they would like to find a competition that they could enter in the magazine. So I am going to make a puff based around that. I used fireworks to create this puff:

First of all I created a star to use for my puff outline


    This is what it looked like, I liked the red font as it stood out which would draw the reader in.



I then added black lines around the edge of the star to enhance it on the page

Second Photoshoot

I decided to do a second photo shoot as I felt like some pictures didn't seem very professional. I am not very keen on the background of these images so I will edit it out. Also the lighting in my last photo-shoot seemed to dark which made the quality of the pictures look bad.These pictures were also taken at several different locations just so I could get a variation which would inspire me when creating my magazine

I like this image as the long shot shows what the model is wearing. However looking back at the image now I feel like the picture looks too posed

I really like these pictures of my model laughing as it seems a lot less serious than in my last photoshoot

 I really wanted an image of my model sat down so that I could get a high angle shot. However looking closely at the image there is unnecessary litter and mud which I should of thought about before capturing the picture.
