Changes made to my front cover, contents page and double page spread of my magazine to show what my final product will look like. It includes audience feedback and images of elements of the magazine that I have changed.
3. + The changes I will make to
my front cover will include
changing the title text type,
this is because from through
Audience feedback, they
said that the text type should
be more suited towards a
hip-hop magazine styling
instead or a rap styling.
I also decided to change the banner
laying just under half way across the
page. As I thought it looked a bit tacky.

On this front cover I have
kept the layout very
similar to my pervious
front cover, due to my
target audience liking the
layout. I also kept where
the text about each
article would go to
maintain a a balance.
However, I did change the
colour scheme from red, black
and white to a purply tinned
grey, white and yellow. I used
these colours because they are
very complementary with each
other.
I also included images that relate to
to genre of hip-hop and rap which
were money and gold (Bling) …..
6. + I like this contents page,
however I don’t think it
matches the same
standard as my front
cover. In my new
contents page I kept the
location of the ‘contents’
in the same place but I
changed the way the text
was laid out to all on one
side.

I carried the same colour scheme
from the front cover into the contents
page to maintain a balance and to
show that they are all linked together
through the use of the same artist
appearing ion the front cover and in
the contents page.
The use of the text being on one
side of the artist’s head being on
the other balances the page out.
That is what I think was wrong
with my other contents page
because the image of the artist
was very small compared to the
one on this contents page.

I think that this double page spread is a bit boring and
dull - “ there isn’t much going on the page which
catches my eyes”. From my target audience, they said
that more things needed to be on the page otherwise
they wouldn’t feel like it was a part of the magazine.

Audience feedback --- “ This double page spread is a lot better than the one
before, as the colours are more eye-catching and I like the layout of text as it
isn't a normal convention of a typical rap magazine. On the other hand, I do
think that there could be more images etc. on the page” Charlotte aged 17.
