The student found creating a college magazine and contents page to be successful. They conducted research on existing magazines to understand effective features. The magazine followed conventions like cover lines and images. Feedback indicated the original design had too many elements, so the student will simplify the layout to make it easier for the audience to engage with.
1. Evaluation:
For the task of creating a college magazine and contents page, I found it
successful. The reasons for this is because I have done all the research and
analysed magazines which have allowed me to gain a firm idea of what
features create a college magazine. I have followed similar conventions
such as, the cover lines, main image and masthead etc. I believe that I have
created a magazine that is suitable for my target demographic and also
fulfils the audience’s needs and gratifications; also I have attracted my
audience towards my magazine by using bait and hooks. I have also
received feedback which will help me in improving my work, many
comments being that it was too busy so to improve, I will therefore make it
more simplistic and easier for my audience rather than having lots of things
together
