The first draft of a magazine received both positive and negative feedback. The negative feedback noted that the front cover looked random and unprofessional, and that some pages needed to be separated. The positive feedback praised the coordinated use of images, colors, and resizing techniques. To improve the draft, the creator will add details to the front cover like the publication frequency, only use the black background for section headers, and add context to images.

1. Feedback of First Draft

2. Negative Feedback of First DraftFront cover looks a bit random. Doesn’t look professionalThese are two different pages so keep them separated See how it will look with the black background just on the headings of the editorial pillarsAlot of white space. Fill it up

3. Positive Feedback of First DraftGood images and pages matches with the editorial pillarsUse of colours are good. Coordinated with the front cover The use of resizing images and page numbers to make it stand out is really catchyThe setting out of this is professional and looks attractiveLooks attractive and professional

4. From looking at the feedback there is a lot to improve I will start by:adding next to the title whether the magazine is weekly or monthly. It will be weekly so I will add in pink ‘THIS WEEK:’ and behind this can go my front cover image so it don’t look too random

5. I will only have the black background on the ‘FEATURES’, ‘REVIEWS’, ‘NEWS’ and ‘GIGS’ and make my white text black instead

6. next to my film tape I will add a black background describing what the images are from and contact details
