Editing of chosen images

I've made another presentation - this one shows how I edited the images I chose earlier in preparation for their use.

Chosen Images (Cover and article pages)

I have made a presentation detailing exactly what images I intend to use in my magazine, as well as why and how.

All photographs taken for the cover and article pages

The following is a collection of images that I took to use for my magazine's cover page and its double page spread.

Planning for photographs

Before I began taking the images to use for my magazine, I needed to make a plan and outline of what I was going to do and how. Therefore I made a brief presentation of my plans in terms of locations, equipment, actors and props, if any were needed.

Improved Contents Page

I have changed the contents page based on the feedback given to me by my peers. The social media links on the page have been moved around to they do not take so much focus. As a result, the images on the page have been moved upwards. The page numbers were also increased to reflect the amount of pages a music magazine would have.

Improved Cover Page Draft

After having my work peer assessed, I have made appropriate changes to my front cover. The fonts used for the cover lines has been changed to one more appropriate to a dance music magazine, but otherwise I decided to keep the cover the same.

Peer Assessment

Here is the peer assessment of my two draft pages, done by two of my classmates. Once my two drafts were finished, they were shown to the students, who them gave me feedback based on what they thought of them. I've used their feedback to improve my work and changed both pages accordingly.

Student Name 1: Adelaide	How To Improve
Level/ Mark	Front Cover	Contents Page
Level 2: 35 The front cover and contents follow a consistent colour scheme of pink and yellow. The colour of the text blends well with the main picture on the front cover. The front cover artist is represented well through the use of certain fonts. For example the name of the artist is presented with pixelated font which relates to the name of the artist ‘PIXEL8’. They have used pictures well in the contents page. The pictures look inviting and they follow the features of the contents page.	Level 3: 36 In order to improve the title should be a lot cleaner. The font is good but it looks rushed and messy. For example the slits on the e and i don’t look equal. Maybe they aren't meant to be equal but I think they look out of place. The puffs on the side are positioned well however the font used doesn't exactly jump out at me like the rest of the cover does. For example the main image looks funky and crazy so the font should follow suit and blend in with the whole feeling of the cover. I would suggest using a bubble like text. Like this: THE HYPE	Level 2: 30 The colour scheme is good however maybe one colour would go well. For example, the front cover had pink, yellow and white. Maybe the contents could have a tiny bit of yellow in it. Even just the numbers on the pictures being yellow would make a difference. The numbers of features should start at about 20 because the start of the magazines is always filled with advertisements so the real part of the magazine doesn’t start till then. The magazine social websites should be at the bottom of the page because they are the least important thing.
