The Next Step?

I now intend to get some audience feedback from my target audience. I will be doing this by sending the link of my post on my blog. This will allow them to see the digital and coloured version which will be better than a black and white handout. I will try to record my findings through verious medias such as audio, video and online.

I also try to get feedback from older and younger readers this means I will be able to see the high and low points of my K-pop music magazine from a wider variety of age. By doing this, I wil be able to add the important information to my evaluation.

Double Page Spread

This is my final product. I am very happy with my outcome even though I have come across many difficulties such as deciding whether to change my front cover at the very last minute, however I am pleased that I took the risk as it now looks better. Looking at other K-pop magazines I feel that my music magazine gives the same feel and content. I have tried to make my front cover noticeable and professional at the same time and in my opinion I have achieved that. I like my double page spread the most due to the layout I have followed as well as the images I have used which really shows off my cover stars personality.



Change of mind

I have chosen to change the front cover by taking off the three bars which used to be located on the very left hand side of the page. Instead I have just left it blank which made it look more professional. I have also re-edited the main image as the colour was too vibrant and it was pixelated.

 



Changes made on the DPS and contents page

Due to the comment I received, I needed to take advantage of the space within the Double Page Spread. So I have chosen to delete the previous photo and input these 2 other ones. On the other hand I had to delete the main image on my contents page as it's the same one. I am now choosing a different image to put on the contents page.

Here you can see that I have changed the image on my contents page. I chose this image as I thought that it shows Miss A's talent.

After a few hours of looking at it and not being satisfied, I felt that the use of a bright yellow for the editors notes and the subscription box was unattractive. This is where I then decided to use a red box instead which I felt better about it. By doing so, I had to change the text colour from black to white which was very refreshing to the eyes. This means that my readers will be able to read this with no trouble which I hope they will appreciate.
