Final audience feedback
The document provides feedback on Todd's magazine design from three reviewers - Amy Robb, George Preston, and Will Grimsey. They provide positive feedback and suggestions for improvement. They praise the professional layout, use of images and text, and consistency in branding. However, some note the masthead could be positioned differently on the double page spread to better guide the reader.
Plans for front cover, contents page & double page spread
The document describes two proposed designs for the front cover and contents page of a music magazine.
The first design proposes a black, white and red color scheme for the cover with the title "Motion" in red on an angle. It would feature article teasers and the word "exclusive" to entice readers. Photographs would provide the background.
The preferred contents page design follows a typical "rule-of-thirds" structure with the main feature photo also on the cover. It would include section headings, a web address, and brief article summaries for navigation.
A double-page article spread is also proposed, with photographs on one page and text in columns on the other for organization. Quotes and

1) The document discusses four different layout designs for a tabloid newspaper mock layout.
2) The first design has the advertisement at the top and uses columns for the copy. The second places more emphasis on the large image and has a higher text to image ratio.
3) The third layout uses a more traditional design with masthead, headline and image on the right with wrapping text.
4) The fourth contemporary design pushes boundaries with a minimal caption and large centered image and advertisement.
Peer feedback(1) 3
The document contains feedback on three different designs - a broadsheet newspaper layout, a tabloid newspaper layout, and a fanzine layout for a hip hop subculture.
For the broadsheet design, the feedback praised the logo and banner ads but suggested making headlines more eye-catching and changing the Obama photo to allow for more text. For the tabloid, one reviewer liked the catchy headline and red banner but suggested improving the ad clipping and using a larger or fewer-word article. Finally, for the fanzine the feedback highlighted the clear images and fonts, creative collage, and informal text, but noted the design could be improved with more suitable colors.
Contents planning
The document discusses the author's process for planning and creating a contents page for their magazine called "Metal Entity". They go through multiple drafts, focusing on layout, image selection, font choices and keeping the design consistent with the rest of the magazine. They evaluate their final contents page as having an organized structure with a good use of images and fonts to represent the metal genre and draw in readers.
Media question 7
This document discusses the improvements made to a magazine cover and contents page design over time. The key improvements include enlarging the masthead on the cover to make it more prominent, changing font colors to improve visibility, and updating cover lines and headlines to stand out more. On the contents page, conventions were broken by centering the masthead and placing cover lines in unusual locations to seem more interesting and indie-inspired. Fonts, colors, and images were also adjusted to enhance contrast and support the vintage, rebellious theme.
Evaluation media work newest one
The document discusses how the author's music magazine Metal Entity uses and develops conventions from real music magazines like Metal Hammer, Kerrang!, and Rock Sound. It covers the magazine's title, font, masthead style, written content, and photo shoots. The author aimed to be unique while taking inspiration from these magazines, using fonts, changing mastheads, addressing readers directly, and taking natural photos to seem realistic rather than staged.
Finding masthead ideas from existing magazines
The document discusses different font options for a magazine masthead and whether they would be suitable. Several fonts are disliked for reasons such as being too similar to other magazines, looking too "girly", being too fancy or simple, or not suiting the genre. One font is liked because it is eye-catching and would not make the cover look crowded. Another liked font is bold, not too fancy, and suits the genre. A third liked font is simple but customized to represent the genre through added lines, making it unique.

Font design research
The document discusses font design for an indie pop album cover. It explains that the title font needs to stand out and match the genre. A messy, unfinished style is considered to convey a relaxed feel. Both asymmetry and geometric shapes are mentioned as design elements. Several preexisting fonts are evaluated but deemed unsuitable. The document concludes that creating a custom font by hand drawing letters or modifying an existing outline in Photoshop would best achieve the desired style.
My layouts eval
The document discusses layout design for magazine articles using InDesign. It describes using grids and margins to structure the layout and place elements correctly. Headers, drop caps, and baseline spacing are tested in different layouts to attract readers' attention and make the text appear denser. Font choices are considered in terms of masculinity/femininity and their effect on different audiences. Overall the layouts are assessed as dull due to a lack of color and complexity in the mock-ups. Further extension tasks experiment with overlapping elements and different page configurations.
Tabloid research
The document discusses font selection and layout design for a student project creating a mock tabloid newspaper. It examines different fonts for headlines, subheadings, and articles, evaluating fonts based on boldness, clarity, and suitability for a tabloid style. Sample fonts considered include Impact, Arial Rounded, and Times New Roman. The document also explores image selection, considering photos of Obama and Lil Jojo to accompany an article, and references layout elements of real tabloids to guide the design, such as large headlines and images with related stories in boxes below.
Cover construction
The document describes the process of designing the cover of a magazine in detail. It begins with choosing an A4 size canvas and selecting a main photo featuring a character with varying blue tones in the background. The character is separated from the sky to allow text to be placed behind its head. Layers are used to place the character over the masthead for depth. A pull quote is added above the masthead for visual balance. Additional articles and design elements like colored boxes and images are incorporated while keeping the main character the focal point. Barcode, date, and contact information are finally added in the bottom right corner to complete the cover design.
Task 10
The document describes the process of designing layouts for different print publications, including a fanzine, broadsheet, and tabloid. For each layout, the designer placed colored boxes to indicate where elements would go, added fonts, images, and text, and adjusted placement until satisfied. The designer felt the fanzine and broadsheet layouts turned out well but could have improved the tabloid more. Feedback provided affirmed the layouts looked professional but offered minor suggestions. The designer felt their InDesign skills improved through this project.
5. pre production(1)
This document contains the design process for a magazine style guide by Madeleine Ross. It includes 3 style sheets exploring different color themes and font choices. Madeleine critiques each option, noting that the first is too bright and childish, the second too muted, and the third does not complement colors well. Madeleine also shares layout designs for the cover and double page spread, and notes photographs needed from own collection versus online. Contingency plans and health and safety considerations for the photo shoot are also outlined.
Mock ups analysis
The document discusses the author's plans for creating a rock music magazine. In Plan 1, the author likes the pink background and font choices for the front cover but thinks the side box is unnecessary. For the contents page, opaque images don't seem professional. In Plan 2, the author likes the close-up central image but not the fonts. The contents page seems too simple. Plan 3's double page spread quote overlay is good but overall the plan seems too "pop" not "rock."
Two Page Spreads
The two magazine pages use bright green bubbles and a faded effect to link the pages together visually without an actual page split. Quotes from the featured band help provide insight into the band's personalities while drawing the reader in. The layout uses a combination of text and images in a way that is both appealing and professional. While the background could use more visual interest and some images might benefit from different cropping, overall the spread effectively introduces the reader to the band through its design.
Peer feedback(1)
The document provides feedback on designs for different newspaper layouts: a broadsheet, tabloid, and fanzine.
For the broadsheet design, the feedback notes that the main headline font is too informal and would be better suited for a tabloid. It also suggests adding more content like advertisements.
Regarding the tabloid design, the feedback praises the attention-grabbing headline font but notes a minor issue with the number of asterisks used.
For the fanzine designs, the feedback appreciates the consistent color scheme and cropped photo style. However, it suggests using a clearer font color and reducing the number of fonts for better readability.
Draft Magazine Analysis
The document provides details on the design choices for the mock magazine's front cover, contents page, and double page spread. For the front cover, the designer wants the masthead to dominate and the main image to overlap it slightly. On the contents page, they choose to list the page numbers on the side rather than top to stand out. For the double page spread, they plan to feature a full-length interview across both pages in their consistent red and black color scheme.
Evaluation for magazine contents page
The document provides an evaluation of a magazine contents page layout. It discusses what worked well, including the gutter width and effective lead image. It also notes that consistency in style between the cover and contents helped create a unified house style. Areas for improvement include the placement and prominence of the page numbers. Creating the house style and choosing images was easy, while picking concise titles and distinguishing regulars from features was more difficult. The evaluator learned about elements like gutters and professional page design.
Task 9
Brandon Parker is creating fanzines for punk music and exploring design styles. He analyzed existing punk fanzines to understand common styles like using black and white with handwritten fonts. For his first fanzine, he used a black background with white text split into three sections in a stylized handwritten font. He included band icons to relate to punk music. For his second fanzine, he again used a black background and white text, changing the font but keeping the title font the same. He laid out the text in two boxes around a central picture of a punk symbol stitched on denim, relating the image to the text topic of punk fashion.
Contents Page Drafts
This document contains drafts of a contents page for a hip hop magazine. The first draft uses colors from the front cover for consistency. It includes a logo but it does not fit. The second draft improves on the first by using smaller, scattered images to break up the text. However, the main image is too large. The third and final draft includes varied smaller images and considers changing the orange background to white for improved contrast. The numbers also need adjustments to look more uniform.
Colour themes and fonts
The document discusses font choices for different sections of a magazine about rock music. It analyzes fonts used in magazines like Kerrang and Alternative Press and considers how fonts can represent the genre through edginess or roughness. The author selects the font "CF Xerography" for the magazine's masthead and contents page because it looks rough rather than clear-cut, reflecting rebellion in rock. Other fonts considered include "Quiet the Thief" and "Curvert" which could attract both younger and older audiences.
Similar conventions of a magazine double page spread
The document discusses conventions used in magazine double page spreads, including having a key figure expand across a whole page to create importance, using sharp shapes to create a border around text and contain it on the page, and including a key quote, puff text box about the main image, and link to the magazine's website. The goal was to create a mock introduction double page spread that was brief but not barren, keeping to conventions while challenging them somewhat for a simplistic look.
Evaluation question 7
The document discusses the author's progress in designing magazine covers and content pages from their preliminary tasks to the final tasks. For the preliminary covers and pages, the author did not understand the tasks or codes and conventions of magazine design. The final covers and pages show improvements in following design conventions, using better images and layouts, and engaging the target audience more effectively. The author learned from their mistakes and was able to incorporate design principles to make the final pieces more professional.
As reflection
The student created three designs for a magazine: a front cover, contents page, and double page spread. They felt the double page spread was most successful because it took more inspiration from other magazines. Both the front cover and contents page had color schemes that diminished the designs by making elements blend together too much. Overall, the student learned that they need to pay closer attention to color contrast, consistency of design elements across pages, and including more images and details in their work. They plan to apply these lessons to improve their magazine design skills for the upcoming year.
Analysis Of Front Cover Of Nme Music Magazine
The document provides feedback on the design elements of a magazine cover. It summarizes that the cover lines are eye-catching due to their bold sans-serif font and contrast against the blue background. The layout forms a neat C-shape around the central photo allowing easy navigation. While the color scheme and background could be more bold, the red hair adds interest and the overall design is clean and organized with good use of white space.
Double page spread ideas
The document discusses layout ideas for a double page magazine spread. It describes liking a spread from NME magazine that featured a large central black and white image with overlaying text boxes. Smaller text boxes were seen as making the text more manageable. Quotes from band members were thought to appeal to audiences. Another spread presented an interview in a way that distinguished questions from answers through bold or larger text. Columns separated by thin lines and larger quote text overlapping an image were other liked aspects. The writer intends to use multiple images, larger fonts, and text overlapping images for their own double page spread.
Peer feedback
The document provides feedback on three layout designs: a broadsheet newspaper, tabloid newspaper, and fanzine.
For the broadsheet, the feedback notes that the main headline font is too informal and would be better suited for a tabloid. It also suggests adding more content like advertisements.
Regarding the tabloid, the feedback praises the attention-grabbing headline font and realistic holiday advert design. It notes a minor issue with the number of asterisks used in the headline.
For the fanzine, the feedback appreciates the consistent color scheme, cropped photo style, and title fonts fitting the punk theme. It recommends using a single-colored font for readability and reducing the number of fonts used.
7. Evaluation
The document provides a self-evaluation of a magazine project. It discusses strengths and weaknesses in the areas of research, planning, time management, technical qualities, aesthetic qualities, and audience appeal. Peer feedback is also summarized. The key strengths included helpful research materials and initial planning. Weaknesses were a lack of details in planning and changing the target audience. Peer feedback focused on improving the blurry text and formatting on the cover and spreads. The creator agreed improvements could be made to text clarity and professionalism.
Student Textual Analysis
The student provides a textual analysis of a magazine cover, contents page, double page spread, and band website. For the magazine cover, the student likes the overlapping title and model but notes issues with readability. For the contents page, the student critiques the lack of indication it is a contents page and unprofessional spacing. For the double page spread, the student notes only one happy facial expression and a lack of outfit changes. For the website, the student likes the social media integration and band member details but critiques some design elements. The student indicates elements they may replicate or improve upon for their own magazine.

Evaluation
The document provides feedback on a fanzine created about Hama beads. The fanzine uses vibrant colors inspired by the beads and includes patterns, storage tips, and an interview. Peer reviewers felt the design and color scheme captured the theme well. Some suggested spreading images out more or adjusting a tight layout. Overall the content and topics covered were seen as appropriate, though one noted there may be too much text for young readers. Minor changes like improving short interview answers or substituting a word were also proposed.

The planning for the graphic narrative had some weaknesses. The flat plans did not allow for enough variation between pages and used real images that could not be replicated digitally. More time should have been spent planning character placement and text to avoid repetitive pages. However, research of other books helped with props and style. Overall, better planning is needed for consistency and to avoid rushing production.
5. pre production
The document discusses planning for a photography project, including:
- Choosing a font and layout for the style sheet based on visual appeal
- Selecting colors that reflect the spring season and nature theme
- Considering fonts and photographs that fit the theme
- Mockups for the cover and interior page layout with descriptions
- Props and locations needed, mainly camera equipment and computer software
- Potential issues like bad weather or camera malfunction and solutions like backup planning
Research
The document summarizes research conducted on fanzines. It discusses key aspects found across three fanzines analyzed, including:
- Font used on the front cover is often carried throughout the fanzine and links to its overall aesthetic.
- Imagery and colors from the front cover are also represented internally to maintain cohesion.
- Additional interviews or reviews are commonly included to provide different perspectives.
- Font and layout are deliberately chosen to match the fanzine's topic or tone, such as condensed text creating a spooky feel.
The research highlights visual and structural similarities across fanzines that effectively tie their design together and represent their content or genre. This information can help in developing
Student analysis2 slideshare
The student analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of an existing magazine project. They note several issues with the front cover including that it is too crowded with multiple colors, irrelevant headline, and misplaced issue number. They provide suggestions for improvements like using fewer colors and a plainer design. For the contents page, they praise the use of "regulars" and "features" sections but think the backgrounds are too busy. They also criticize the lack of purpose for the social media icons. For the double page spread, the student observes it is messy and disorganized with small hard to read text and a lack of large engaging image. They determine the page looks thrown together without care.

Key improvements include using a more sophisticated font and effects for the masthead to make it eye-catching. The central image in the music magazine is more stylized and from an interesting angle. The layout, colors, and images were chosen to look more like other magazines. While some elements like direct address remained the same, overall the music magazine better achieves a professional look.
Looking back at your preliminary task, what
Meg Allard reflects on improvements made from her preliminary magazine to her music magazine. She believes the music magazine looks more professional with a sophisticated masthead font using effects like embossing. The central image is more stylized and interestingly angled. Layout and design refer back to magazines reviewed for better structure. Colors suit the target audience of girls. The contents page uses thinner, varied fonts allowing more space. Images stand out against a white background. Vibrant purple with black and white provides good contrast and visibility. Doing the preliminary task helped identify strengths and weaknesses to incorporate into the stronger music magazine.
Feedback
The document contains feedback on a streetwear fashion/photography magazine. There are mixed opinions on the layouts and photography. While some layouts and photos are praised, others are said to need improvement. The color scheme receives positive feedback for its simplicity. Specific suggestions include changing the layouts of pages with just photography to improve structure, editing photos to bring models more into focus, and altering the font size and empty white space on article pages. The last two pages and front cover are called out as needing revision based on the feedback.
Pre Production
Imogen is creating a fashion magazine targeted at women ages 15-25. The magazine will feature photos of models wearing different outfits along with sketches of fashion designs. Imogen has selected three outfits for her friend Amy to model in the studio, including a snake print jacket, joggers in neutral and colored options, and a long grey skirt with crop top. The photography session will take place in the first week to allow time for reshoots if needed.

- Evaluate how text was used to anchor images.
- Consider if the product is suitable for the intended audience.
Digital graphics evaluation pro forma
The visual style of your graphic narrative draws inspiration from classic children's books like The Hungry Caterpillar and The Birthday Crown. Your use of simple shapes for backgrounds and rotoscoped characters in a minimalist style echoes visual conventions from books aimed at young audiences.
You also incorporated textual elements commonly found in children's literature, such as speech bubbles, to help tell the story visually. Text is integrated with the images in a way that builds on techniques used successfully in books like The Gruffalo.
While your work does not necessarily reflect professional graphic design standards, it demonstrates an understanding

Here are my observations from the primary audience research:
- The target audience prefers magazine covers that are attention-grabbing but not overly busy or complex. They want something that stands out visually but is still sophisticated and easy to digest.
- The main image or "center piece", typically featuring a model, is considered the most important element. The cover design should highlight this central visual and make it the clear focal point.
- A generic layout with the main image as the clear focal point, and supporting text/elements arranged around it, is preferred. The design shouldn't be too unconventional or distract from the central piece.
Based on this, some ways my product could appeal to this audience include:
-
Research fmp copy
The document analyzes and summarizes several magazine covers:
1) The first magazine cover uses a black and white theme with subtle pops of color. It draws attention to important text with varying shades of white. The side-view model photo allows for surrounding text.
2) The second magazine employs a black and white theme and larger bold text to draw attention. It features a close-up photo of a model's face to focus on facial structure.
3) The third magazine incorporates a black and white theme with a colorful element in the corner. Its masthead draws attention with the word "photographer" and a side-profile model photo shows facial features.

The document summarizes research done on the target audience for a drinks menu for a restaurant. Some key points from customer feedback include a lack of drinks menus on tables and a need for more soft drink options for families. The target audience is described as older couples and retirees who dine out weekly and prioritize ambiance over pricing. Based on the upscale, romantic environment suggested by dark colors and candles, the summary recommends a formal drinks menu focusing on wine, beer, and spirits advertising to both males and females. Images should match the niche, old-fashioned interior to blend in visually.

The document provides a factual analysis of various television programs about poverty, including Benefits Street, Skint, and The Mighty Redcar. It argues that The Mighty Redcar presents the most objective view by showing both positive examples of people trying to improve their lives as well as negative examples, while Benefits Street and Skint focus more on the negative aspects of life in poverty. It notes similarities between the programs, such as stronger community bonds in impoverished areas, as well as differences, like higher drug use depicted in Benefits Street and Skint compared to The Mighty Redcar. The analysis compares the representation of poverty in each program to determine which presents the most balanced, objective perspective.

Spaced homework
The mise en scene in the TV program Spaced conveys a childish effect through a Batman figurine on a character's keys and an army outfit worn ironically. The dark colors and lighting in the apartment symbolize the characters' troubled lives. Sound effects are used effectively, such as realistic gunshot sounds during pretend finger gun fights that help the audience follow the fast-paced action and maintain the comedic tone. Tense background music also builds suspense during a mugging scene before cutting to a humorous finger gun battle.

The image shows the two main characters from the film Kick Ass having a heated conversation in a medium shot. The director uses green to represent the just character and red and black to represent the evil character. Both characters are showing signs of aggression by clenching fists, puffing chests, and maintaining eye contact, suggesting an upcoming conflict.

1. research yr 2
The document provides an analysis of existing fanzine products. It finds that fanzines typically use more images than text as readers do not want large blocks of text in their spare time. Bold fonts are important for any text to catch readers' attention. Front covers need to be aesthetically pleasing to attract readers. Color schemes and themes should match the topic. Images are key to showing content about subjects like street art. Both informal and formal writing styles can be effective depending on the intended audience.

- 7. Feed back 1 Do you like the style of the fanzine? And why? I think that the style of the fanzine is spot on as it gives a very retro vibe to the fanzine and I think that this works well with the content as it is about the past and the use of backgrounds that are faded and have an old look works very well. Would you read this if you saw it online? And why? To be honest if I saw this online I probably wouldn’t read this as this isn’t really the content that I like to read/consume but if someone has the interest in the content they would be more likely to read it. I would be more likely to look through the magazine to look at the style of the fanzine more than anything because the pages have a lot of character and this would interest me. What do you think I could improve on? I think that the only thing that sticks out to me is the front cover, the colour and background of the cover don’t match the rest of the magazine as it is so much lighter than the rest of the pages. I think that the font really works but the style of the fanzine makes me think that it is meant to be like a police crime folder and you could look at some other fonts that look a little bit more like handwriting to help convey this, if it is what you were going for.
- 8. Feed back 2 Do you like the style of the fanzine? And why? I like the style of the fanzine because its old fashioned which links into the use of black and white photos used through out. I also feel like the style makes the overall fanzine easily identified as a crime fanzine. Would you read this if you saw it online? And why? I would because it has broken down the information about John and simplified the information. This is because you have clearly labeled what each page in on. What do you think I could improve on? I think you could improve your work with font. This is because the text is a bit boring and I feel it doesn't link to the theme too well. However, the title for each page works great. I also feel like you could have positioned the font better on the pages where it looks torn up. This is because you have left gaps which makes the work look uncomplete.
- 9. Feed back 3 Do you like the style of the fanzine? And why? I think this fanzine is very effective, the style is very old fashioned which brings more life into the story. The different design elements of each page make it more realistic and interesting. The fact that most of the photos are black and white also give it a retro old fashioned theme. Overall did you enjoy my fanzine? And why? I think this fanzine is something which is very interesting, I personally have never heard of this man so its nice to know a bit about what he did- the way you have simplified the information and made it much more easier to read is very effective. The page tears give the effect of a new paragraph which is much more appealing to read than just a whole page of text and a few images. From the first few pages it is very clear of the genre. The title font looks as though it is handwritten which is even more effective as it makes it more realistic. If I saw this online I would most likely read this because it is a subject which I am interested in. What do you think I could improve on? I don’t think there is anything which needs improving. The only thing I would have liked to see is a interview of some kind (this would have been tricky considering the subject of your fanzine though). Another thing is the front cover not really matching the other pages- it would have looked more professional and effective with the background to be the same as the other pages. However, it is still a good fanzine.
