The document describes updates made to a magazine work. Various images, colors, and formatting elements were added or modified to the front cover, contents page, and article pages to make them more visually appealing and typical of pop music magazines. Page numbers and highlighted quotes were also included to aid the reader. The final versions contain conventions commonly seen in pop magazines and have an improved professional appearance.
2. I have added my masthead on to the front cover of my magazine and
edited the outside of the main image. I have placed the main image on a
plain white background as this is a typical conversion of a pop music
magazine which makes the main character stand out.
3. I have added smaller images on the side of my front cover as in pop
magazines a variety of images are used. I have also used an auto shape
to highlight a specific part of my magazine which is fashion. I have
included this section in my magazine as teenaged girls are also interest
in the latest fashion tips and advice. I’ve started to edit the actor’s neck
as I wanted to remove the hair to make the magazine to look more
professional.
4. This is my final magazine front cover; it contains a variety of typical
conventions that are used in a pop music magazine.
5. I have started to added page numbers next to the text to make it easier
for the reader to find the right page.
6. I started adding images at the bottom of the contents page to give an
insight to the different kinds of posters that are available in the
magazine.
7. I have made an X –Factor logo but didn’t think that the yellow and red
went well so I changed it to red and grey.
8. The background is very plain as it is black so I used different coloured
auto shapes at the bottom of the page to make the contents page look
more interesting.
9. There were no effects or stroke on this page so I added them to make
the text stand out.
11. I have added my main article in to columns and added a title as the top
which highlights what the article is about. I have also inserted an image
of the main actor.
12. I have added colour to this page to make it look more attractive. I had
used a lot of different fonts, but changed so that they are similar so the
magazine looks more professional.
13. I have highlighted key quotes that the artist says during the interview to
give the reader an insight to what the article is about.
