AUDIENCE FEEDBACK

TO THE STARTER DRAFTS

PERSON 1 ( MALE )• DISCUSSING THE COVER: My first member of the target audience

thinks that I should correct areas of my colour scheme , starting by removing the ‘ANGRYPLAY’ image and working on improving the cover image to better suit the conventions of the rock genre.

• He does however , agree with some of the colour scheme as the aggressive colours used help to convey the genre better. He likes the title and the general layout of the cover .

• DISCUSSING THE DOUBLE SPREAD : As the work for my double page spread is a working draft , there is little to discuss on improvement – However , He did comment on the fact that the image containing the subject should be on the dominant side of the double page ( the left hand side). And that a title should cover a larger amount of the double spread page.

PERSON 2 ( FEMALE) • DISCUSSING THE COVER : My second member of the

target audience agrees with my choice of fonts and likes the colour scheme used , she agrees with the image used but thinks it could take up more space on the cover .

• DISCUSSING THE DOUBLE SPREAD: She also agrees with my first member of the target audience in that the image should be on the left hand side but she thinks that the image should be larger, possibly even changing the layout so that the image takes up the entire double spread page.

PERSON 3 ( MALE)• DISCUSSING THE COVER: Member 3 thinks that the cover is

emotional , and that , like the first person , thinks some colours don’t work well with others . He suggests maybe having a colourful image and darker colours used in the column on the side of the cover.

• DISCUSSING THE DOUBLE PAGE SREAD: Again , as the work is still in progress for this section , He found it difficult to add any criticism – instead suggesting that the double page could incorporate more colours and a larger image.

PERSON 4 ( FEMALE )

• DISCUSSING THE COVER: Person 4 liked the colour scheme , she thought they suited the genre very well and fit the convention of a rock magazine.

• She thought that the language used on the front cover was good as it made the reader feel as if it were personal to them using words like “ Exclusive “

• DISCUSSING THE DOUBLE SPREAD PAGE: So far she liked where the design was going but saw that it was missing a title , she suggested I use sans in the title as the person in the image is female and sans is more relaxed and is better associated to a female character.
