Evaluation

Evaluation of my final draft of my music magazine-

From looking at my second draft to my completed product, it is apparent that I have made several changes such as the following:

1.       On my front cover, the word “Countless” in my masthead was of an inferior quality. Therefore, I decided to change the font and placed it behind the word “Jazz” (also in the masthead) highlighting the importance of that genre of music. It also implies that the magazine is known well enough for part of the masthead to be covered.
2.  Secondly, on my contents page the image of the music notation had a visible white background that could easily be noticed. I thought this showed a lack of my skills so I decided to get rid of it and spread out my cover lines and add some anchorage text underneath each of the cover lines, filling up the space left on the page.
3.  The cover line; “Check out what’s inside!” looked as though it had been randomly placed onto the page, so I moved it above the cover lines as it indicates to the reader, a sense of organisation within my work.
4. Also on my contents page was a purple box containing the masthead, however I felt as though this was no longer important as I had changed the background of the entire page already and the box was not important anymore.
5. On my double page spread, I had to change the arrangement of the quote which was meant to read; “One day I want to fill the whole of Wembley Arena with my fans” but the words were in the wrong order as they were previously in two boxes.
6. Finally, on the Q + A it would have been difficult for reader to distinguish between the questions and responses because they were both the same size, font and colour. I have now changed it so that the questions are in yellow, making my article easily readable.
