Creative stage: First and Second draft Double page spread Audience Feedback


Audience Feedback:

"I like the layout and the model as if sitting on the text. Use of colours go well together."
"I like how the model is sitting on the pull quote."
"I really like the layout of the images on the page. And, the grey gradient background"
"I like the big cover line, of the double page feature as well as the pull quotes"
"Try adding your masthead of 'Indie-pendence' as welll as a page number to make it look more like a magazine article and not just an article."
"I really like the font, its brilliant."
"I'm not sure I like the box in the corner, I think the writing looks like it doesn't fit almost."
"The lighting doesn't fully match on the two images of the artists"
"The writing could be smaller, and there could be more content, asking more personal questions"
"Try make the pull quote a bit smaller, to make the artists name stand out more."
"The pull quote in red could be bigger."


Creative stage: First and Second draft Contents page Audience feedback



Audience Feedback:
" The featured section needs to stand out more"
"Good use of language- questions, imperatives"
"Try making it look more conventional by adding some more images that originate from the feature of the magazine"
"Page number, and date"
"You could try putting your masthead on your contents as well"


Creative stage: First and Second draft Front Cover Audience Feedback


Audience Feedback: 

"Some of the cover lines are a bit hard to read because of the thinness of the font? Maybe make the font a bit bigger/thicker"
"I like the way the colour scheme is quite simple"
"The use of colour throughout is clear and neutral, easy to read the text"
"The simple colour scheme doesnt over power the page and allows the image to stand out (focal point). Text stands out in boxes, also, well organised and structured"
" I like the way you've laid the magazine out, having the cover-lines on one side in order to make the model stand out, you might want to add more in the sky line"
"I really like the colours you have chosen- bold and bright. Maybe add more text"
"Make the image less air-brushed"
