Feedback from Front over and Contents Page

Feedback from my front cover and contents page

After completing my front cover and contents page I decided to get feedback from my target audience. This is very important as I need to make sure they are appropriate for my readers and actually meet their needs. I improvements are suggested I shall look into these and adjust them.

Person 1)
I like the way she has used her house styles on both the front cover and on the contents page. The name of the magazine "Nation" stands out on the front cover and is very intriguing. It is placed in a large, bold and eyecatching font. Also, the different fonts on the magazine contents page work well, as it is easy to read and overall looks clean and well presented. Great main image for her front cover- Very bright and radiant which draws your attention directly to it.

Person 2)
The brightness of the front cover image is amazing and the postioning of the text is very good. The straplines of the front page look very professional and link in which the genre perfectly. Contents is layed out well and is clear which it needs to be.

Person 3)
The image on the front cover is very clear and bold- You can tell there has been a lot of thought in to taking the photographs as this photo is very suitable for a front cover. I also like the fonts used for the masthead as they stand out very well. I like the house style between the front cover and contetns and how she has used similar fonts and colour schemes- I recommend she keeps this unified style when designing her double page spread. The contetns is well spaced out into sections, making it easy to find the section you want to read about. This is very good!

I was very pleased with the feedback I recieved from target audience and thought it was constructive. I will take their advice and keep a unified house style when designing my double page spread- showing the continuity. I realised that most of my comments were saying that the image was very bright, clear and well suiting my genre of music.
I will take this constructive feedback and be aware of it when researching, planning and designing my double page spread.
