The document provides an evaluation of Thomas Bond's film magazine project. It summarizes the strengths and weaknesses of the planning, research, time management, technical qualities, aesthetic qualities, audience appeal, and peer feedback aspects of the project. For research, Thomas looked at existing film magazines, posters, and t-shirts to get design ideas. For planning, he created mind maps and style sheets. Peer feedback suggested adding more text to the magazine cover and changing the character design on the poster. Overall, the evaluation assessed both positive elements and opportunities for improvement in the different stages of the project.

3. Research
The strength of research is that I can get some ideas from existing products that
relate to the same products that I'm going to make. In the research, I looked at
different film magazines for teenagers between 16 – 35 years old. The products I
looked at all had similar colour scheme, layouts, fonts and graphics. I mainly
looked at the front covers, but I also had a look at some articles inside of them. I
did this because I wanted to know how other film magazines have their content
laid out. I also learned about what type of information goes on the front cover so
that I can put similar information and images on my own magazine. I did this with
the poster and t-shirt so that I can get ideas of how they are done by other
people. This is so I can do this best work and that I can take some inspiration from
existing products.
The one thing I could have done in my research is a get more people to do my
survey this would of help know because I could get more feedback and make my
products more interesting for the buyer. Like to have more input on specific fonts
In the magazine or on the t-shirt.

4. Planning
In my planning I did a good detailed mind map and style sheets to help me to
visualise what my magazine, poster and T-shirt will look like once they’re
done. The mind map helps me look at what my target audience and genre will
be so that I can make my products to a targeted audience. Which will help me
decide on what content to put in my products e.g. images, text i.e.
In the style sheet I looked at a range of fonts, colour schemes, size of font and
different images. These help me more to visualise what I want my final
product to be like. Some of the colour schemes and text font which I have
looked at in the style sheet will be Included in the final pieces of work.
I looked at different film magazines, posters and T-shirts which will help me
do the planning because it helped get the colour schemes, text, text font/size
and what existing film products like mine have in them.
I could have had more variety of colours to be included in the fine pieces of
work.

5. Time Management
The planning and research time went well. In this this time i found good quality
images with a high resolution that which did not take a long time to find and save
into my documents. When I looked at existing products this took a bit more time
because I had to go to find three different types of existing products (magazine,
poster, T-shirt) which took time to find the right types of products that went well
with my own.
I could have looked at more fonts on my style sheet and tested them out in
Photoshop because they look slightly different when in Photoshop. I would of
done this if I gave it more time to done this.
I drafted the content text in Microsoft Word so that I could use spell check and
also so that I had a back up in case Photoshop corrupted and so that I dint waist
time on rewriting and remembering it all again. After drafting it, I put it into
Photoshop and arranged it to fit in the guidelines for the products. This took quite
a long time because I had to resize the text and format it to fit were I wanted it to
go.
If I had more time I would have added more detail in the magazine and poster to
make them more attractive and to attract more of the audience to the products.

6. Technical Qualities
The similarity of my work to existing product is that it
has similar colours (red, blue, black) and that the logo is
in the center of the t-shirt.

7. Aesthetic Qualities
I would improve on the
character such as changing
some aspects like the
position of the character
and the colour of the suit. I
would also change improve
the text at the bottom
which has the cast and
directors on the have more
people and to have the text
enlarge a bit more then it is.
I like how the title font and
colour go well with the rest
of the poster colours and
the style of images that are
used in making the poster.
it looks good and creative
because it is using different
shades of colours and
altering existing aspect to
be my own adaptation on
the character.
Strength of this product is
that it is detailed and eye
catching to the audience.

8. Audience Appeal
I have appealed to my audience by using a colour scheme that most people in my survey
thought was the best for the type of magazine cover I was going for. I also mead sure that I stuck
to the sc-fi aspect which 40% people said they preferred. By doing so I got a hand full of already
existing posters and put them in the film reel , it think this will appeal well to may target
audience. I included a little bit of bright colours because in my survey most people said that
bright colours would attract their attention.

nothing on the back and keep what's on the front.

magazine which could attract more people.
• What do you disagree with from your peer
feedback?
– I disagree with the character I think i could if changed
the symbol on the chest but the character I think is
good enough for the part.

14. Peer Feedback Summary
I would change the text on the back of the T-shirt to make the
T-shirt look more appealing to my audience. I would change by
getting rid of the text by changing the precision of the text and
the colour also the size of the text to fit well on to the T-shirt
and make it go well with the image on the front.
In the magazine I would add additional text to filled out the
empty spaces to make it look more filed out and eye changing
to the audience.
The character on the poster I think I could have made it more
different so that it doesn’t look like the superman symbol. I
could have done this by taking out that symbol and replacing it
with my own made symbol for the character.
