While i was going through these and my older posts, i couldn't help but notice that i haven't stuck to the colour scheme that i had thought through. Instead i have used red, white and black. If you count the photos then i have also incorporated green. Looking back i now think that this colour scheme is better.
My front cover
I have changed a few things with my front cover. I have taken the feedback that i received from when i posted it and have taken it into consideration. I have changed the colour of the Masthead so that it stands out more. I have also removed the boxes (they weren't supposed to be there in the first place, they were just a guide for myself). I have changed the colour of the text at the bottom of the page so it can be read. I have added the issue number, the amount of the magazine and the date. I removed the 'plus added features' because it sounded corny and not professional. Overall i have improved the appearance and presentation of my front cover.
My contents pages
I created two contents pages because i wanted my magazine to give my target audience their moneys worth. Also i needed room for an editorial, which i didn't have on my first contents page. For the first contents page...
I have changed the contents page by; changing the KJ. I have changed the colour behind the text and also the transparency, i have also strengthened the black of the text. I have put columns in, so that it looks more aesthetic and i have written more for the 'On the cover' and generally for each contents of the contents. I thought that this looked more professional that what i had originally put. I have also made the pictures bigger.
For the second contents page...
I have continued to use the Masthead i have used the same font for the contents. I have kept the font of the other text the same as well as the colour of the font the same as well. On this page i have included my editorial. I wanted to put it onto my first contents page but i had no room. So i created another one so i could have an editorial. Also, most magazines nowadays have more than one contents page. I thought that if my magazine has so many pages then it needs to have two contents pages to show them. I have made a mistake...the page number on the photo is the wrong one! It's meant to be 23. I will change it for my final one. The space between the editorial and the bottom section of the contents will be filled with a photo.
My double page spread
For my double page spread i haven't changed as much as i have for the others, however i think this is good because it means i did this quite well the first time.
I have put in the paragraph above the interview. I have also put in a page number, which also goes with the colour scheme. I haven't put one on the opposite page because of the title and also because there is no space. i have moved the text boxes and changed how much writing is in each one. i have also changed the font size so that i could fit my text in. i have also put in the 'Exclusive to KJ', this makes it look as though this article is something you can only find in KJ and not in any other magazine.
I have also made a few changes whilst i was writing this. I will post the final versions when i have received my audience feedback.
