The document provides feedback from peers on a movie poster layout. Suggestions included smoothing the editing around the main character's head, using a neater title font, making the title and quotes smaller, and adjusting colors and sizing of elements. The creator implemented some changes like smoothing the main character's face and title font. Additional feedback on a review page recommended adding more photos but the creator felt the single image worked best without changes.

The document shows various layout designs and elements commonly found in film magazine publications, both in print and online formats, including cover pages, article pages, and website layouts that feature large images, brief text summaries, and a mix of reviews, interviews, and other content to engage and inform readers interested in films. Many of the designs emphasize prominent images over extensive text in order to quickly convey key information and draw readers in visually.
Mock up feed back
The document provides feedback on a mock magazine cover, contents page, and double page spread. Key points include:
1) The cover alignment is off, the barcode is too big, and the model's top is distracting. Fonts and layouts are inconsistent between pages.
2) Photos are low quality or don't represent the genre. Too much white space makes pages look empty.
3) Based on the feedback, the creator will change the magazine genre to "chart" for more flexibility. They will use a black background for sophistication and completely redesign the contents page layout.
7. Evaluation
Leticia Pozze evaluated their FMP project of creating a magazine. Their research provided ideas but could have included more details on existing products. Planning helped choose the idea and layout but more detail could be added. Time management was good as all work met deadlines. Feedback noted the sub-heading font could be clearer and more background on heroes could be included in the double page spread. Overall the project looked like a real magazine cover but improvements could be made to font clarity and article details.

Producing a film review
The document describes the process of creating a film review layout and article. It discusses deciding on a conventional layout, writing the review following a simple structure, and placing the text and images in InDesign. Images were edited in Photoshop and added to emphasize themes. A pull quote was extracted and styled. An information box was added at the bottom to provide key details. The final review follows conventions with a large image, text in columns, and continuing visual themes.
Draft layouts
The document discusses three draft layouts for magazine contents pages and double page spreads. Draft 1 contents page uses blocks of color and images to showcase featured articles in a simple visual design. The double page spread uses a large central image and title to feature a celebrity interview. Draft 2 contents page focuses on pictures over text to clearly show what's included. The double page spread lines up columns of text over a full-width background image. Draft 3 contents page includes more text sections and linear organization, with the double page spread dividing the page into image sections for a photo shoot feel.
Griff preliminary magazine front cover and contents

- For the front cover, a sans serif font called "Nova" is used in capital letters to make the masthead stand out. Larger fonts are used for important parts like the masthead.
- On the contents page, a separate sans serif font called "Franks" is used to emphasize the magazine's brand identity while providing variety.
- The front cover image shows a musician staring arrogantly at the camera to portray them as a well-known figure and attract readers. It is in black and white with strategic lighting to eliminate shadows.
Improvements to my magazine
The document describes improvements made to the layout of a magazine, including the front page, contents page, and a double-page spread. The front page now has more text and cover lines, removes unnecessary elements, and better positions the image, barcode, and cover lines. The contents page removes the front page image, improves typography, and changes the page number layout. The double-page spread adds feature boxes, alters spacing and positioning of elements, and moves the pull quote. Overall, the adaptations improve readability and professional appearance.

Magazine construction
The document describes the process of creating a magazine front cover by following the conventions of the Prometheus and Empire magazine covers. Some of the key steps taken were:
1) Using Photoshop to create the cover and selecting an image from the film's teaser trailer background like the Prometheus cover.
2) Having issues matching the font of "EMPIRE" so a similar font was used instead.
3) Struggling to place letters behind the character's head but overcoming it using the pen tool and duplicating layers.
4) Placing the film title around the character's torso area like the Prometheus cover and choosing red to make it stand out against the costume.

Review and poster construction
We created a movie review poster and magazine page for our film "Peter". For the poster, we took a screenshot from the film and edited it in Photoshop to brighten it. We added the title "PETER" in white text in the middle to stand out against the dark background. We included information about the film such as time and credits at the bottom. For the magazine page, we used a large black font for the title and added a quote in red to match magazine conventions. We included two paragraphs with details about the film and a screenshot from the movie as the main image without further editing.
7. Visual Evaluation

Poster and magazine layouts
The document discusses different layout designs for movie posters and magazine covers.
For poster layout one, the description calls for a close-up image with minimal text to not distract from the image. The title would be centered and large, with a quote above to engage viewers. "Coming soon" is preferred over a date.
Poster layout two includes the cast and crew but may fill the page and distract from the close-up image. A title at the top could cover the subject's face. "Coming soon" is kept to generate anticipation.
Poster layout three changes to landscape format, requiring a background image. The title is moved to the top with a quote beneath to complement it. Cast
