2. During the research of the pre-production for the magazine outcome I used all types of different ways
of researching such questionnaires witch really helped a lot because I put questions in that I need to make the
magazine succeed and I received a lot of help full answers from the people I handed them out to, I handed
about 10-15 questionnaires and had tall the information I need of them but I had t go deeper into it to find out
What I really need I cant do it based on 15 people so I was having face to face conversation asking for advice
And I kept on getting the same results as I did from the questionnaire so during my spare time I as my home
Friends what I was doing and they liked it and even before the shoot i gave my models a brief outcome of the
project ad the were excited they were inspired by the idea, especially after the whole project was completed
and the images were edited and actually showing them the physical copy of the picture they were extremely
Happy about it. This was for the front cover but for my double page spread I got the ideas of the people in the
Questionnaires ad they gave me a lot of information on what to put in the double page spread and I went with it
And I liked the ideas also the questions was really involved in the double page spread and was suitable for
the genre which was based on the sport football.
Questionnaires
3. The type of product research I used to get information and an idea of what I need to do to make
my magazine cover successful I learnt a lot of the research the initial and production search which
Then made it easy for me to do my own after gaining all the knowledge. I got some magazine covers and
Content covers of the internet explore and pasted them into a PowerPoint and analysed them giving my own
Opinions on the layout and design. First ting I did was gather loads of covers then analysed 3 of the covers
Ten compared two of the magazine covers.
Cover Content
The difference between my
Cover and the content page
Is It looks like I have spent
More time on the cover than
The content so therefore the cover
Will look better and it does. The
Reason why I spent more time on
The cover is because I that is the
First thing people see when they
Look at it so it has to look at it’s
best….
Whereas the content page
That is the last page on the
Magazine so it will be the last
Thing whom may read it will see.
On the other hand the content
Looks good but not compared
To the cover and that’s coming
From me the person who
Designed both layouts/Covers.
4. My Official Logo
This is my official logo just above and the reason why I chosen this one is because it looks familiar to
The Magazine Match! The font is very similar not just that… the other reason why I chosen it is because
It appeals to me and it is very suitable for a football magazine ad the colours remind me of the
Manchester united uniform I the champions league 2008 there the two reasons why I picked this one.
The outcome of it was excellent it worked perfect with the colour of the cover and the text that
was on the magazine cover.

Red and Gold just like the text for my magazine
Cover.
5. As you cans see below the before and after picture by look at this I am extremely happy about it because
It looks 100% better than I thought it would and I think I have done a good job on it. What I did to make
it like this is firstly I added exposure on the full image as I always do on every picture so the brightness
stands out I played around with the leaver to get the right colour secondly I used the colour balance tool to
Give it that balanced colouring on the image thirdly and finally I blur motion the background for the finish.
The outcome of it is exceptional It looks like a professional photo.
Before After
6. After the editing was completed for the image
I then started planning right what do I want the
Cover to look like so I was looking at the photo
And think of varieties of colours and fonts I went on
the website to look for fonts and I found this one
It looks great and when I seen this font I seen the colours
In my head that I wanted to use i also support
Manchester United so that jumped in my mind as well
and I used their colours the red and gold and the logo
matches Perfectly with the cover photo. With all the
Text on the cover I made it short and simple and the final
Outcome of the magazine cover I was astonished I really
Like it and so surprised it turned out like this.
7. After the editing was completed for this image that I am going
To use for my content page It did not take as long as the
Magazine cover because this is just the content page you do
Not put as much on it as i did on the cover. After doing the
Cover and the spread page I easily knew what I needed to do
For the content page because everything in the spread I just
Need to title it on the content for example I talk ticket sales
On the spread so on the content page I would title ticket sales
So really It was easy because I already have all the information
I need. I really like the picture I chosen to be on the content
Page because I think it suits it not just because of the lighting
In the right top corner of the background even though I had
The idea to use it but it is also they way the model is posing
And looking at the camera he looks very hungry to win the
Game and same goes for the model on the front cover he looks
Very eager to win and it fits in perfectly with the whole idea
That’s why I think it works well.

9. Ask 10 students what they think of your magazine – you can do this as
interviews/ questionnaire or even a facebook group and invite people to
view and comment – show me screen shots
