Question 5
Audience Feed Back
I
also took on some of the audience’s feedback such as;
What could I improve?
‘Your DPS seems to be an A4 piece;
perhaps you redo it as an A3 with a larger image?;
‘You could improve on the
layout of your DPS because the image of Victor (the guy on b the couch’ with the saxophone) looks a
bit stretched horizontally and you could
have also made the DPS an A3 sheet or paper instead of an A4 sheet of paper’
The audience feedback allowed
me to analysis my magazine and to see the features they liked and also features they may have come
across unclear. I was able to redo parts
in order to help attract my audience
however some people stated my audience was clear and certain factor like
having a white model did not demine my magazine.
Audience said;
‘I think that your Black and white colour
scheme will attract potential readers to your magazine even if they’re not a
part of your target audience and this is because of the fact that most
magazines are really colourful or dark (black colours) and your unique colour
scheme will defiantly stand out. You
target audience will defiantly be attracted to your music magazine for this
reason as well.’
‘By representing Jazz, you are able to attract Jazz
fans. It is quite formal; this would be appreciated by the audience.’
This is positive
feedback as the targets I was looking to achieve such as keeping a formality tone in my magazine
have been achieved
Question 7
Question 7.
Looking
back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the
progression from it to the full product?
I learnt the importance of having a colour scheme and how it
can influence people to buy your magazine and, also how crucial it is to link the
colour scheme to your target audience as this will help persuade and encourage
them to pick up your magazine.I believed I significantly improved due to my
case study’s, I was able to look through various magazine and see the methods
they used to appeal to their target audience. Arsenal using red as it
links to their emblem and Downbeat changed there’s each issue but still maintain
a general colour scheme and kept it basic. Looking back at my audience Feedback
I can see how much I improved such as;
If you look at my bar code on my College task is stands out
and affects the quality of my image I learnt that the placement of features can
be instrumental when producing a magazine in my music magazine. I choose a more acceptable
bar code and also change the side, I did not want to crowd my text into one
corner of my page so I decided to spread it out.
My typography also improved if you look at the my college
magazine where I used a variety of fonts in came across tacky, I realized keeping the same font and using standard capitalization on certain text is extremely
important as it allows you to make a subtle impact which was important in my music
magazine as it was in black and white. Here is some of the feed back below
My photography improved as we used more advance cameras and hired
out studio’s also my choice of models was better. As I had the opportunity to do
a case study I was able to look in detail to see who would feature in my
magazine and I chose the best person in my college who fit that description. This is why, my target audience is easy to establish on my music magazine whereas, if you look at the college magazine my colour's and font could have been targets
at a variety of audiences and was not specific.
As you can see the layout of magazine has changed. I have equally spaced out the text also used more images an images which relate to my content. If you look at my college magazine;
. I've named it contents page
. Not gave any headings
. Poor Camera (Bad sizing )
. Left Blank spaces
. Different colour shades ( Green )
The reason I improved my college magazine was because I was
able to look back at details where I went wrong and compare them with my case
studies to see where I went wrong. The
main reasons are shown above so, in my music magazine I followed the structure
of other stimulus and whereas the college magazine was just made from scratch with no focus or
guidance in my music magazine my aim was to keep it formal. My images has to create
a mise en scene so they kept the Jazz feel throughout my magazine, heading
& subheadings where put in bold to
make them stand out, we used more advance camera's (Cannon's) and I tried to
balance out my text and imagery so I would not leave any blank spots. I also
made sure I used the same colour of black through the text.
