Cover and contents page of student weekly!

PRELIMINARY TASK

EVALUATION EXAMPLE

Main image

The main image used

in my magazine is a

medium close up of a

student.

The main image used

in the second

magazine is an image

of a attractive women

looking directly at the

camera. This is

effective as the

women is looking

directly at the

camera, which makes

it more personal. But

in my magazine the

girl is reading a book,

which relates more to

my target audience.

cover lines

I have fewer cover lines

than the second

magazine. This is

because students wont

be interested if there

was a lot of text on the

front page, they would

be more interested in

the images on the page.

Masthead

Blush- the names of the masthead

is related to makeup and

appearance, whereas my

masthead “student weekly” is

related to students and

academics.

barcode both magazines consist of a barcode. I

have included a barcode in my

magazine because it makes it look more

professional.

vs

More text include in the

second magazine than in

the first. There is less

text in my magazine

because, it is a student

magazine therefore

students would not be

interested in a lot of

writing.

In the second

magazine there is only

one image but in my

magazine there are

three images. I have

chosen o use three

images because it

would be more

appealing to my target

audience. The image

used in the second

magazine is more

glamour's and

sophisticated, where

as my images are less

glamour's because they

are related to college.

Photoshop: I have learnt a lot since using Photoshop. Firstly I have

learnt a lot of different ways that I can manipulate images to make them

look differently. Photoshop has also helped me correct photography

mistakes. Additional I learnt how to get rid of p[arts of an image that I

did not need, and add in extra parts to an image. I also learnt how to

upload font text from I used Photoshop to create my front page and my

contents page. This was extremely useful because it made my magazine

more professional than if I had made my magazine on PowerPoint.

Moodle: Moodle was very helpful because it enabled me to access

resources to help me create my magazine. When using Moodle I looked at

examples of different magazine evaluations to help me improve my

magazine.

Digital camera: using the digital camera has helped me decide

what kind of shots and angles I would prefer to use for my magazine. I

learnt how to zoom out and in to achieve the perfect angle shot.

Furthermore using the camera helped me create the perfect MCU which

dominated the frame.

I have made a lot of progress throughout the whole project.

Firstly I now know how to use Photoshop more effectively than I

did before. I can now manipulate an image and make it look the

way I want it to.

I have also learnt how to make a magazine look more

professional.

To improve I could have manipulated

the I images more to make them

stand out more, and to make them

look more professional. I could have

done this using Photoshop. Also I

next time I think I would add the

title of the magazine to make it look

more professional.
