Evaluation feedback

This is my evaluation feedback I received on my research of the school magazines. 

I will continue to make improvements to my work and compete any uncompleted tasks. 

Beauty of pop masthead

The following mastheads shown are idea I got from the internet on a font maker site called Cool text font.

I have chosen thee types because they are girly and unique, and would fit well in my music magazine.

These are my three hand-drawn designs of the masthead to my pop music magazine

I have annotated some color suggestions of what type of color scheme I will be using in my magazine.

The different styles have a unique font but all have the same theme of linking back to the girly theme, so the magazine will easily attract teenage girls(The target audience) . 

House Style Ideas For My Music Magazine

Masthead ideas 

I have used a site called "cool text graphics", to generate my text into different fonts styles, which I could use on the front cover of my music  magazine. The usage of the colour pink could be reused all around the page to make my own house styles.The bottom font is the font I have chosen to use for my magazine. 

Different names for the pop music magazine:

- Pop Party                      -La pop

-Party People                  - Beauty and pop

-Just POP!                       - Beauty Of pop 

-Pop hits                         - Now music

-Simple Pop                     -Teen pop

The color scheme around the page: 

The color schemes I could use for my magazine could be one out of the following. Pinks could be a common color due to the target audience being teenage girls who stereotypical have a favoritism of the color pink or purple. 

I could use a bright and bold type of pinks, which stand out. Alongside purples and different tones of bright pink. 

These types of pinks could also be a option, however this choice is mostly based on having a lighter and girlish pink, light pinks and grey. Also a touch of purple to the house style. 

 This could also be a options, which uses more lighter colors, which are not very bright

House style "top of the pops"

"Top of the pops" magazine house style

This blog shows a pop magazine called "Top of the pops", which demonstrates a usage of house style. House style is when the audience is aware of a common feature of the magazine, Whether the house style on each of the front covers, or on every page of the magazine. Usually the layout of the page demonstrates a house styles so the audience is aware that a house style is noticed. 

As seen on the "top of the pops magazine",the following images include  a color scheme used of each magazine cover. The first two magazines above both have the same title with different colors, this could also be spotted to be a house style as it is a key feature. The colors are usually two different, or 3.

Evaluation video

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

This is a short video, i tested to experiment with different media uses. I used a software called "Slides". This software is useful because I was able to add images and change the font styles and colours. Whilst making my final cover for the school magazine I learnt how to do different things in , such as adding shadows to the images or text. Also how to blur something out slightly to give an effect. I also learn how to do the simple things such as adding images.
