Editing the first draft of the magazine advertisement
Below is the first draft of the magazine advertisement that I have created.
Although I like the first draft, there are a few minor changes that I intend on
making to the design of it, including making the album name ‘Vengeance’
stand out more. In order to do this I decided I wanted to change the Character
spacing. Here:
This allows the title to look like this, which I prefer as although it is a smaller
font – it stills spreads almost the size of the title, making it more noticeable.

I have also changed the font decoration here, including:
Font style before: Calibri, changed to Cambria because ‘Calibri’ font appeared
too structured and formal, which I thought was unsuitable for the band and
theme.
Font size before: 16pt, changed to 20pt as it could be seen better and much
clearer when it was bigger.
As you can see below I also changed the font colour of this text, as it was white
before it looked too bright for the dark image, so I changed it to a faint grey
colour so that it blends
with the image more,
yet it’s still possible to
read the text. Due to
resizing the text I also
had to position it higher
on the page, this is an
advantage as it looks
better on the image
and also makes the text
easier to see.
