The document discusses feedback received from an audience on a magazine design. Key points from the feedback included that some fonts did not work well together, the red color did not suit the skyline, the white border was messy, and there was too much text on one side of the page. The designer took this feedback and made changes to the design, such as removing the border, changing fonts and sizes, and decreasing text in some areas. Researching conventions from other magazines also helped the designer improve the professional look and target their intended audience better.

doesn’t work well with each
other such as the one used
one ‘Bones..’

I don’t think the colour red
particularly works for the
skyline.
The white border is messy.
It could be a lot neater.
The way the movie title is
layered just doesn’t look
right. It takes way the
focus of the magazine.
These to much going on, on
the one half of the page.
There’s just far to much text
just on one side of the page.
I think the stars should be
a brighter colour ,the black
blends in with her hair.
3. The main concern for my audience was for the border to took
neat which gave it professional look to it. Although I felt that it
would not only neater but better without the borer as I felt
that it was too much white.
I learnt that I went wrong with the type of horror I was going for
didn’t suit the house style of my magazine. Although this does hint
horror which is what I was going for. A typography that looks like its
been carved into table.
I decided to remove the sticker
although it is a convention of a
magazine. I didn’t think it was a right
fit for mine.
I originally didn’t want to make
it white because I thought
there would be too much
white on the page but
deceasing the text above
makes it stand out.
I changed the typography
and the size to make it in
line with the text above. I
got the idea from empire
magazine it helped it look
more professional.
For the skyline I was using Empire magazine to
help me. It gave me the ides to have it quite
thick text like they do. It complements your
masthead to have it white as a contrast .
I was finding it difficult to figure out what
type of typography I should use but also I
wanted my own twist to it. So I did some
research and I was inspired by woman in
blacks typography some of the words
were smaller then the others which gave
me the idea to do the same.
With my masthead I leant that I was
originally going for the wrong kind of
horror but looking at the style of
other magazines my audiences
prefers my new masthead.
4. • I made each decision to change the magazine on
what I thought would target my audience better
by using there feedback to help me draft my
magazine. It has become the best way to target
them by allowing them to construct it with me.
Also by using my research on convention of a
magazine and using empire magazine to help me
make a judgement.
