Final Music Magazine

All together on this page is my finished music magazine consisting of my final front cover, contents page and the double page spread.

Below is the final front cover of my music magazine, although I have made changes with the buzz words etc.... the basis of the front cover is still the same as my initial mock front cover. I tried to keep a lot of things the same as my mock front cover as I thought that overall the mock front cover looked good and went well with the genre of my music magazine.

Below is my contents page I have changed quite a lot for example I have added in an editorial note, changed the images, the title block and the colour scheme. I have done this as the results that I for my mock magazine show that these changes needed to be made to my contents page; to raise the standard of the magazine overall.

Below is my finished double page article; it consists of two pages of image concerning the artist and a two page article. On comparing my final version of the article to my mock article I can see that they are the same in nearly all areas except for the page numbers (colour), the colour of the text as well as the images and there fitting into the page.



Mock Magazine Audience Feedback-Results

From looking at question 1 I can see that 75% of people who took my servy think that the colour scheme on the front cover works well, however 25% of people who took my survey thought that the colour scheme on my front cover did not work so well. To get it to 100% of people who think that the colour shceme works well, I can change the colour shceme to not ony look more professional but to work better together. I can change the colour sheme by taking out the mixture of colurs and having the coour shceme consist of black and white. By doing I will be making the magazine look more professional as well as choosing three colours that work extremley well together.

 

87.5% of people felt that the images, text and overall features were well spread out on the front cover, unfortuantly 12.5% of people thought that the front cover wasnt spread out enough. To improve this for my final music magazine I can make changes to the front cover such as less text or smaller text, different colours to give the illusion of the front cover being more spread out.

As 100% of the people who took my survey said that they thought that the genre (rap) of the magazine was well reflected by the front cover I do not feel the need to mke any improvements to the front cover, concerning the genre.

I asked people the question of what did they think about the text stlye, I did this to help me improve the standards of my magazine through the responses I got back. From the feedback that I got back I can see that the text is good as I got mostly that the text is ok and readable.

I asked in my survey what people thought of how the contents page was set out, and apart from one person who sad that they didnt understand the question I got ixed responses. Some people felt that the contents page was ok, however others fet that the colour scheme wasnt the same and that there were not enough images. I can use this feedback to improve my magazine by adding more images and as I have said in a precious question I am going to change the colour scheme to make it more consistant throughout the whole magazine.

 

100% of the people who did my survey felt the article was well presented, therefore I do not feel the need to make to many changes, maybe just small things for my final magazine such as more images and buzz words in the middle of the artice; to intice the readers attention.

All 100% of people surveyed though that the images that I featyred alongide the artice were appropriate as wellv as there being enough. This result backs up my intiall feeling of that I do not need to make any changes to my article image wise.

The results that I got back about how the overall magazine can be improved all show that my magazine needs a better colour scheme as here are too many colours on the front cover and then very few in the rest of the magazine. As I mentioned in question 1 about giving the front cover a more professional colour shceme I think that the colour scheme that I will use will be red,white and black.

Draft Magazine-Front Cover

Below is the first draft of my front cover; when I was designing it I tried to experiment by using different colour fonts as well as different sizes. However apart from the title block I kept all the writing in the same font, to help give my magazine a professional look and feel to it.
