Evaluation of preliminary tast (College mag)

I think what went well was the layout of my front page of my magazine, I think that the way everything was placed on the page was clear and precise. Others have said that the colour scheme is good and is consistent throughout and worked very well. Also the arrows that I used indicate what is in the magazine which is clear, the use of text and shapes used was effective as it draws the audience in. My masthead and cover lines are big and bold to attract the eye of the audience. 

My contents page is the same colour as my front page therefore works well. The texts is white therefore stands out on the red background which makes it easy to read. Others have said the layout on my contents page is very easy to understand and to follow. Another person has said that they like they way I have put the text on one side and pictures on the other, this makes it more affective and makes it less boring. 

However, on the other hand things that could have been improved is the quality of the picture used on my front page. Some people have said that the pictures is blurry and makes the front page look unprofessional and I could have used a more efficient image for the front page. So this is defiantly something I would change. 

On my contents page things I could improve on is that there should be more information so that the readers can navigate the magazine efficiently.
Three key points for developments when producing my music magazine is for the photography to be good and accurate, that I need a clear image for my front page. Another point is to add enough text and images to attract the audience. Finally to pick a good colour scheme to catch the eye of the reader.
