Front cover

From feedback from my target audience I have made some small changes to my front cover. The background has been changed so that there is for a dominate spotlight effect seen behind the image. This allows the images to have the main focus on the front cover, allowing the reader to get enticed into the magazine due to the recognition of the main story. I have also changed the date and issue number to look reciprocal and both sides, but also look more professional, as when looking back at my research, the date and issue number were set out very similar.

Contents

I have gained some feedback form my target audience, where I have know gained some suggestions on the changes to my front cover.The numbers before the article (1,2,3) have been taken off and have been replaced with bullet points as some article are more than one line therefore it couldn't be left with nothing as it would be unknown where one article started and finished. I have also taken to black outline from the page numbers, but have put the text of the Sneak Peak section in blue with a black outline as without the black outline it is not easily readable.

Spread

I have not made many changes to the spread as the feedback from my target audience was main positive, but have put a different colour around the page numbers to allow them to stand out and also have added the magazine name to allow the pages to look professional and aesthetically pleasing. I have also changed the text in the colour blue, in the subheading, in larger text to allow these certain words to stand out even more and catch the eye of the reader and engage them even more into the article.
