Magazine Cover Evaluation

Research Of Indie Rap Magazines

Feedback for front cover

For my front cover many people said they like the image as it applied to my theme well, they went on to explain that the quality of this image was not great but still worked well with my front cover as it fit well with the colour scheme. This lead them onto saying how the colour scheme appeared dull and not an eye catching cover, this was then referred back to my genre and said the colour scheme did not apply. Although many features of the magazine lacked a favourite for the reviewers was the idea of puzzle pieces as it gave a different effect you don't see in many music magazines.

Feedback On Contents

For my draft of my contents page many said the colours did not refer back to my front cover and was a different colour scheme, due to this the writing was difficult to read and this meant I had to change the font and colours to fit. Due to the colours being different to my front cover this didn’t link back to my genre and meant the colour scheme had to be changed to fit with the products I researched. Another issue I face is the use of picture as it ended up being pixelated and not clear, this ruined my contents and many people said a change of picture would help me with the quality of my work. Overall the biggest issue was the use of space left empty as the background showed largely in some areas, this made the contents look plain and needed more on it.
