Lesson Overview

In todays lesson I started on my Evaluation by completing question one, 'In what ways does your product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?', This took me half of the lesson to complete. For the rest of the lesson I started on the tweaks on my front cover and contents page with the help of feedback from the class and lectures, that hopefully will make my outcomes look much better and more professional.

Front Cover:
On my front cover I have changed 'the 50 best alternative albums ever made' from a box on the side to a banner along the top. This has made room more tag lines to be placed along the right hand side, I have also moved the main story tagline down a bit which has also made room for taglines. I have made the masthead of my magazine bigger so it would stand out more and have put music notes around the masthead to make it clear its a music magazine and also makes it look more appealing.

Contents Page:

For my contents page I have changed the background colour from white to a pastel green, which isn't overpowering but still gives it a bit of colour and makes the page look more full. I have extended the lines of the grid that separated the stories to make a complete grid which I think makes it look more clean cut and professional. Also I have changed the colour of the box that had the subscription advert in it to white with the same pastel green for the text and a image of my tweaked front cover.
