1. Evaluation
I think my preliminary task went well as it taught me skills to make a
magazine, knowledge of how to carry out research and conventions
of a magazine through a variety of ways. From my research I learned
the importance of making a magazine that meets the needs of your
target audience, I made a questionnaire that had ten questions all
based around what a person who goes to college would want from a
college magazine.From the questionnaire I made it allowed me to get
my target audience’s opinions on things such as price of a magazine
and the name of my magazine. In my research I also learned the
conventions of two typical college magazine contents page and front
covers by doing this I took some ideas for my own front cover and
contents page to make it look like a genuine college magazine. The
preliminary task taught me the skills to use InDesign which allowed
me to make a genuine college magazine. If I were to make my college
magazine front cover again I would remove some of the cover lines
and make the remaining ones bigger so they are clearer, I would also
think about using a clearer texts with no outlines as that made it a bit
difficult to read. On my contents page I would probably make it a bit
simpler and maybe change the colour scheme as I didn’t completely
like the bright blue colour scheme.
