Evalutation of preliminary task



The cover of the magazine is very basic but covers the main needs of a magazine front page. The image used is with a direct mode of address, catching the buyers eye. The colors stand out against the white background and photo drawing attention to the subheadings. The colours and taglines are approriate and thought about for the subject and target audience of the magazine. The photo is alittle bit out of focus, on my main magazine I shall make sure all my photos are focused and better cut out on photoshop. The fonst used are quite plain although this makes it easy to read it is not very interesting, for my main magazine I will try a range of fonts to find a font which is both visually peasing and easy to read. All the tag lines are the same size, this looks neat but boring I will have more than ones size of text for my taglines-maybe the ones i find most popular in a bigger size to what would be the every week articals. This magize is missing straplines and a leading capion on my main task I shall use these because I think the first thing that interests you in a magazine is the leading capion and that the more information you can get on the magazine the better because you feel your getting more for your money.  By doing this task i have developed my skills in using Photoshop (too cut out the image) and InDesign (to put it all together), I intend to use these skills in my main task.
