Double Page Spread Final Draft

This is the final draft of my music magazine double page spread. I made some changes based on the feedback i received: i added more text to the article so that is now a similar size to most music magazine double page spread articles, i made the circles bigger so that the article fits into the circles, i changed the colour of the text so that it is easier to read, i added a title at the top of the page so that it doesn't look as empty.

Contents Page Final Draft

This is the final draft of my music magazine contents page. I made some changes based on the feedback that i received: I put the titles of the articles into boxes in order to make the page more organised, I changed the colour of the box and the text in the bottom box so that it no longer blends in to much with the photograph.

Front Cover Final Draft


This is the final draft of my music magazine front cover. I made some changes based on the feedback that i received: i added another pug in order for the cover to look less bare,

Double Page Spread Draft 1


This is the first completed draft of my magazine double page spread. It contains all the features of a conventional music magazine double page spread: photograph, article, pulled out quote, title, page numbers.

When i asked people in my class for feedback, they said: the photograph isn't very effective as it is on a block background, the circles are effective because they are the same as the circles on the contents page and front cover, the pulled out quote is effective.

Double Page Spread Draft 2


This is the second draft of my magazine double page spread. I decided to make some changes based on the feedback that people gave me. I changed the photo and no longer have a block background, i moved the circles around so that they circle the photogarph and are not all placed on one side of the photograph.

Contents Page Draft 1


This is the first completed draft of my magazine contents page. It contains all the features of a conventional music magazine contents page: letter from the editor, photograph, article names and article page numbers, a small photograph of the front cover.

When i asked people in my class for feedback, they said:
The text at the bottom of the page is a very similar colour to the the colour of the clothing on the photograph which makes it difficult to read, it is difficult to know which sections of the contents belong to which sections as they are not placed in boxes, the 'contents page' section is efefctive as it is the same as the masthead on the front cover.
