3. Research
• I think the strengths of my research is that I have got images of magazine covers and
magazine double page spreads that show the the layout and design of popular existing
designs. This allows me to get ideas of magazine layouts that I can use when creating my
product to make my product look more attractive and appealing to help sell more copy's of
my product. I think another strength of my research is that I have researched products to a
similar design that I want to do. This will help the creation of my product because not only
does it give me an idea of where to start but it also gave me many different ideas for my
design.
• I think the weaknesses of my research is that I used some of that time to research T-shirt
designs because I was planning on making a. T-shirt design as well as a magazine however I
didn’t have enough time to do my T-shirt design meaning that the time I used researching T-
shirt designs was a waste.
• I think my research could be better if I focused more on a certain product/brand so that I can
go into more detail about the products, however I also think I should of just researched more
products overall to get a range of design ideas and to see what my magazine needs to be
successful and appealing.

4. Planning
• I think the strengths of my planning is that I focused on one of the designs
more then the others. This is because I had a rough idea what I wanted to
do before I even started. I think that this is a strength because it means
that I have a large amount of detail and designs for the product I am going
to make, which meant it took less time to create the actual product.
However I think that this can also be a weakness because if anything was
to happen forcing me to do a different design it would mean that I would
be lacking on a lot of information and I could possibly of fallen behind on
my work.
• I think that my planning could be better if I went into more detail on the
other two design ideas so that I could have a better chance at making
more then one product

5. Time Management
• I think that when making this product I did not use my time well. I did not
complete features of my work on time. If I had more time to produce my
work I would of made more then one product, for example I would of
made a magazine design as well as a T-shirt design. I would have also gone
back and put more detail into certain parts of my work.

6. Technical Qualities
Existing product
This existing product also has put the logo
of the game in the middle of the page
where it stands put the most as well as
putting information around it and adding a
different colored shape with information
inside like I have done for my design
My product
For my product I have tried to make my title
bold and stand out like they have done in this
existing product. I have also used a range of
color's that match the theme and that also don’t
to make certain information stand out to others
like they have done in this existing product

7. Aesthetic Qualities
I think that my work is creative and I think my work is okay however I think that it
could be improved greatly to be more appealing to my audience. For example I think
changing the colour scheme, layout, fonts and adding more effects will not only make
my magazine more appealing but more appealing to my audience. Although there is a
lot of things I would change I think one of the strengths of my work is the
backgrounds. I think this because not only does it show the audience what the game
looks like but it shows what they will encounter in the game giving them information
through image form. However I think one of the weaknesses is that the colour scheme
drags the attention away from the images making the audience end up ignoring them.

8. Aesthetic Qualities
I think I have made my product appealing to my audience by adding these types of
backgrounds. I think this because in my questionnaire my audience said that they like
survival games the most so I have added images/backgrounds that show the audience
that this is a survival game and shows you a couple of the survival situations you might
be in when playing the game. I think I have also appealed to my target audience by
having a lot of information about the topic I am talking about along with other things
because in my questionnaire they also stated that they prefer a magazine that has a lot
of information rather then just a lot of images.

the product?

12. Feedback 3
• What did you like about the product?
• I like the effects that you added to your work
like the flames on the cover
• What improvements could have been made to
the product?
• I think your double page spread could be
better if you added more to it.

13. Peer Feedback Summary
• What do you agree with from your peer
feedback?-I agree that I should of used a different colour scheme
and layout because my colour scheme doesn't look very appealing and the
layout looks un-pro and messy.
• What do you disagree with from your peer
feedback?-I disagree with the statement that says I should of added
more on my double page spread. I think this because if I added anymore
onto my double page spread there is more of a chance of my audience
getting overwhelmed or to the point where it becomes unappealing.

14. Peer Feedback Summary
If I could make any changes to my product I would of used a different layout and
color scheme because I think that my color scheme is un-appealing to my
audience and I think that my layout is messy and un-clear what is what. So if I
could make any changes I would make a layout that is organized and clear to my
audience. I would also use a different colour scheme for my product that
matches the background images more and which look more appealing to my
audience so that there is a higher chance of selling more of my product. Finally I
would change some of the fonts for my double page spread and cover photo
because I think that the fonts I have now don’t suit the game making the
magazine look less appealing overall.
