Video Feedback: Here I received a lot of comments from interviews I did. I agree with the amount
of text on my front cover; was quite plain and therefore maybe could use some
more text to fill up the white gaps. I wanted my media product to be more
structured and professional rather than having so much writing and images
cramming the magazine too much. However my contents page my interviewee said
that it was actually positive such as how the colour scheme and font style are all well suited
with the overall urban theme and target audience of the magazine. Although the
target audience is slightly more swayed towards the male viewer, a unisex
colour scheme including colours such as red black and white have been
incorporated to enable an open target market for both males and females
interested in urban music. The majority of the font involved is bold and hard
as opposed to rounded, which again works cohesively with the edgy urban theme.
Mostly it has important headlines have been highlighted by increasing size and
definition to influence impact on the reader, whereas less prominent subtitles
have been formatted to imply lower necessity.
My Opinion
On the whole I think that my front cover is the weakest page I did as it
is quite basic and standard. However for me to improve this problem I could
have more variety and different fonts
than just two and maybe used more of my colour scheme possibly more types of fonts. Having said this I do think
the grey scale image on a white background works so the necessity for multiple
colours is questionable.
I wouldn't make any changes to my contents/double page spread from the
feedback I got. I think they're structured well and professional conventions to
real media product and on how the different parts such as title, photos, texts
and etc and work with each .
