1. What have you learned from your audience feedback?

9. Audience feedback on final draft of magazine We improved the magazine much taking into account many of the comments this lead to many positive comments such as “ I really like the final edit, it looks professional and like it could fit well into any film magazine.” and “ The images you have used are perfect and portray your film well, particularly like the photo of the two directors and the comments you have used, making it more personal to the reader and more relatable. ” We made this decision to add a picture of the editors to make the second page more attractive, it gave the magazine a contrast of pictures due to pictures being taken from scenes within the film, whilst the photo of the directors makes it more personal. The picture of the directors suited the editors comments box very well due to using quotes of the directors. We applied a shadow and a 10 degree angle to this picture to make it less formal showing our youth, this suggests have a low budget showing how well we did to produce with a very low budget. This decision was influenced by Jason due to him commenting “ adding the directors comment and photo makes it slightly more light hearted and a film magazine isn’t meant to be a serious, academic read so this fits in well ”. We made the text slightly informal to reflect the directors youth once again, making the magazine a nice read, especially for our generation due to the majority being our age who watch the film due to it being on youtube. Whilst Miles another media student felt the colour red was a bit “amateur” therefore we changed it to a light blue, we got this idea through the film magazine Total Film. This gave the magazine more variation with not only the colour red but blue as well now. The colour blue contrasted nicely with red, the reason why we wanted contrast was to portray the change in person from child to solider. These three products created a brand image through the similarity they had, this means the viewer would recognise they were from the same media product. Overall we are very happy with our final edits of all media texts, this was backed up by the positive comments left by our fellow media students.
