Feedback of First Draft: Double Page Spread






Lastly, I interviewed 3 people about my double page spread so I could make some final amendments to it. This is the copy I showed them and this is what they said:





I made the text smaller, as suggested by someone I interviewed, and added a quote in the middle of the text because I saw lots of double page spreads with this to intrigue the audience.





Feedback of First Draft: Contents Page

I also interviewed people about my contents page to see what was good and what could be improved. This is the version I showed them and this is what they said:
































After taking into consideration what they said, I may some improvements to my contents page.



As 2 people suggested that the fonts could be improved, I did so. However, although one person said that I had too much text, I left it because so did the contents page that I analysed, as well as the contents page I used as a template.      

Although only a few small and subtle changes have been made, I think it makes my contents page overall, look more professional as it now follows all the codes and conventions.

Feedback of First Draft: Front Cover

After completing my first draft of my front cover, I showed 4 different people and asked what they liked and what I could improve. This is what they said:







After taking their improvement suggestions into consideration, I edited my front cover appropriately. This is the end product:




  • Slightly less crowded
  • No white writing so it can now be read easily
  • Less vivid colours (only 2 main ones for the colour scheme)

I also compared it with my analysed front cover I was using as a template one last time and realised one mistake I had made.  I had my masthead in front of my main image, when it should be behind it. So, I edited that too too ensure it followed all the correct codes and conventions.
