Feedback

Becky Marrow

The work you've done so far is up to a good standard and I can see the process before you completed your first draft really well, I also think the way you have commented on some of your drafts shows you've worked hard.

Your final draft is eye-catching and the colours match each other, the bands you've mentioned on your cover lines and your main artists also fit the music genre of your magazine. Overall it looks very conventional and professional.

To improve I would feature more cover lines down the right hand side of your cover as it seems a little empty

I think your blog is looking good so far, I think the work you have done is at a good standard. I think all 3 of your drafts are very different, and the colours you have used work well together. The image you have used is interesting and the different ways you've edited it make the image look totally different. I think your font stands out and is easy to read from a distance. Think your plan on your progress has loads of information, and you've explained each step you have done well. You have explained your sources and the reasoning on why you've changed the things you have. I don't think many things have to be changed or anything more should be done.

The blog looks good because it has met all of the requrements that were set. Also the colour scheme matches the colours of the front cover mock ups which is cool.

I think that the front cover is great because the coulours are attractive and eyecatching and it looks life a professional magazine.

I think it could be improved by changing the colour the bar at the bottom because it looks a little too bright.

Final Front Cover


This is my final front cover for my magazine. I feel it has been succesful in the sense that I have achieved a product that is very close to my planning and mock ups. Furthermore, in the production process I have learnt valuable skills which will help me in future production using photoshop and creating similar products to a magazine front cover. Throughout the project I feel that I have managed my time effectively so that I left myself enough time to create a good looking product while still ensuring I have backed it up with good written work and research. Also very importantly I have really enjoyed all processes in the production leading to the final front cover from researching into costume ideas for my artist to playing with different ideas and techniques on photoshop.

Draft 6



In this draft, I experimented with using the adjustments on Photoshop to see how I could play these onto the model. I liked the colour scheme of the purples and pinks as this straight away will connote individuality to the reader as it is not common to see these colours on a front cover. However, I have not stuck to specific colour scheme and I feel this therefore makes the colours not look effective as they could.
