After review with my peers and target audience we found that in the print out of my magazine that the black was to intense, so we have changed this to a new colour using the same design as before. We are now using a dark grey, which allows the picture to stand out but still look pleasing to the eye.

The final copy of my magazine will be published when i have complete the content page, this could be within the hour.

the final final copy .... I hope !

After popular demand for a man with clothes on, I got a picture of Rajko at his last concert held at Shebbear college.
What do you think ??

This post shows the font has been changed and the size of the photos have been changed, a new photo was also put in place above the picture of Rajko.

The font is now impact!

Final cut two is one of the main contenders, but before i chose the grey i used a red background.  As shown below:

Final cut two

After taking time to think i felt that the picture could be wrong, so i changed the picture but as a result i had to change my colour scheme to black and grey.  I thought that this looked better, but the final colour and picture isnt down to me but the focus group that i have chosen.

Final cut one

This is one of my front cover choices; I am still awaiting feed back from the focus group.



I feel that this could be a strong contender for the final version, although the picture maybe slightly inappropriate.

Questionnaire

My questionnaire is short but sweet hitting the main points that i wanted to cover, and to find the name for my magazine.

before i started

I had to look at the ways in which other big companies market and sell there product using the front cover, such as Bauer Media Group and the BBC.
The picture above shows one of the magazines that i looked at when, learning the fundamentals of media.
From how a lure is used to how website on the spin is used.

Bar code

i used this for the bar code in the bottom right hand side of my cover

Nothing but the start

Starting out in our project, takes time to create what you think to be the best selling product for magazine.
We have started with a preliminary task, which was to create a school magazine that would attract a younger demographic group. My cover is meant to attract from year 7 to 6Th form, this meant that i needed to aim my product from age 11 to 18. This is a very big group baring in mind that the its a school magazine, this meant that the content had to be young and hip. At the same times formal for the older members, this meant i wrote a questionnaire to see the needs of all ages.

I have also drawn up by had a general format for the magazine its self this wont be change, as it shows simplicity and this make more age appropriate
