First Draft Magazine

We have collected a large variety of feedback on both positive and negative aspects of our first draft magazine cover.

Positive

- The pictures that you have used are really good as they give detail into the personalities and the story lines of the characters.

- 'I like the use of the work 'every' in the tagline'

- The use of the word TV in the picture of a TV is really creative and suitable for the magazine for soap operas.

- The font is really easy to read.

Negative

- There is a lot of white space that should be filled.

- You should maybe look into having a more consistent colour scheme.

- There isn't a price shown.

- The font maybe easy to read but it could be more creative.

From this feedback we have decided that we shall move the pictures around and add some more writing to give the audience more insight into the story lines which will also use up some of the white spacing. This will fill up the magazine cover and draw more audience attention to the soap and magazine due to the writing. from looking at other magazine covers there isn't really a colour scheme as the are loads of colours used to make sure that it is eye catching, therefore we won't be changing any of the colours or adding in a colour scheme. We shall be adding the price onto the front cover in two different place which again will use up more space and will also make the audience aware of the amazing price that the magazine would be sold for. The generic conventions of soap opera magazines just just bold and basic fonts so that the audience don't have any troubles reading the information and it also adds to the eye catching of the front cover. Overall the positive feedback that we have received for out magazine cover is really good, we are happy with the pictures that we have used on the front cover of our magazine. The people that we have asked for the feedback have told us that the extra things that we have put on their, for example the picture of the TV with the word in it has also been a success and people can then relate to that logo as being part of that particular magazine.
