Summary



Overall it seems the Front Cover was the favourite part of the magazine for the audience, with the name, fonts and colours all proving popular choices, with only small percentages disagreeing with this. However the image was questioned by some and is something I will look to change, whilst also tweaking the layout to avoid large empty spaces and technical inaccuracies. In order to create a thoroughly professional final piece.


The Contents page in general received positive critique, with people enjoying the professional layout and how all the information required was present. Also the colours were popular with some and they enjoyed the contrast created but others thought they looked quite simple, so a change could be looked at. Whilst additionally people commented how they liked the image, but it was similar to the image on the front cover, so a change could be in order.



Finally the Double Page Spread was the least popular section. People wanted a more diverse image, with a more interesting layout, including more colour. All things I will seek to improve. As well as improving the quality of the article to make it more professional and more interesting to read for the audience. This section is where I feel more improvements need to be made and will change most drastically.
