Evaluation: Audience feedback
I gave my magazine to people in my target audience and asked them to evaluate it, and tell me what they thought about it. From this I found out that my magazine would be successful if it were to be published.

Cover:
As the cover image has soft brown and beige shades, I would suggest that you make the background a warm shade as well such as a light mustard colour so that it complements the cover image, also showing that the genre of the magazine is country. I would also position the puffs closer to the edges so that they are more structured and look more professional as it is aimed at university students. I would also suggest that you choose a more bold and eye-catching font which would help your magazine to stand out and make certain puffs more appealing than others showing their importance. I would also change the colours of the puffs (black , brown , a more burgundy shade than the bright red) as this would make everything look good together , so that it looks less like a rock magazine.

Contents:
I like how you have positioned your photos and outlined them, however I would suggest that you make the colour burgundy or a darker shade of red. Where you have plus section I would make all the text the same size and structure it so it’s all in line and looks professional and neat. I would also use a large variety of fonts that look more interesting and make certain text stand out better as it has more importance such as the subtitles.

Article Pages:
I would make the questions a different colour (burgundy) so that they stand out better. Also because your target audience is university students I would add the website at the bottom of the page. Also maybe use a different font for the quote to make it stand out and look more interesting.

Cover:
Title – The title block should be on top of the central image. This makes it harder for me to recognise your magazine title.
Central image – The central image edges looks very rough which makes the image look unrealistic; you should reedit the image and make the image blend out with the white background.
Puffs – The font & size of the puffs should be the same; some of your puffs stand out more than your anchorage text.
Anchorage text - This should stand out more than all the other text except from the title. This should be potions near the bottom next to the image to show the connection, this right now looks like a puff not an anchorage text.
Colour: The colour however does not match with your theme; the colour makes your magazine look odd, maybe changing one of the colours to a different colour to connect with your theme.

Contents:
Contents: information – You should add more contents information, your contents information makes your contents page look fuller.
Colours – I think you added too much colours onto your contents page because it does not look like it’s suppose to be targeted at your audience, the contents right now looks like it’s target for young people.
Image: The images on your contents page look unrealistic. You should also add a few text on the images
| |||
Article Pages:
Texts & Title – You should add colour onto your text’s so that it connect with your theme. Change the font of your main title because it does not stand out. The article text’s looks boring, it’s not eye catching.
Image – The image layout is very close; they are positioned too close to each other. One of the images is not positioned in its section.

What I can do to improve

Production Draft 1
|
Cover:
*Plan the fonts and sizes you use more carefully. Find fonts that are different but look good together. A good tip is to have the same font and size for all the puffs except for the anchorage text which should stand out on the page.
*Does your magazine have a slogan? How will the audience know that this is a new country magazine?
*The artist needs to appear bigger on the page.
|
Contents:
*You have many different fonts on the page – they need to be smaller and there needs to be more cohesion across them all. Have a look at some professional examples – they all keep the same font and size across the page.
*What are the different sections of your magazine?
*Some of your contents are very vague – tell me who the interviews are with and not simply ‘upcoming artists’.
| |
Article:
*Can you make the introduction to the article stand out more? Play around with the layout of the page to make it more interesting and draw the audience in.
*You need to edit the photographs more – they are quite dark. Use exposure, brightness and colour adjustments to make the images more attractive.
*There is room on the last page for a pull quote on the image.
