Print Prelim Evaluation
For my print prelim i worked with Katie, we both thought up our models and both decided on our chosen colour palette. We used inspiration from magazines like Heat and Glamour to get ideas for our magazine as they would appeal to the same audience as what we wanted - teenage girls. To actually produce our prelim we used the digital cameras to take a variety of pictures of our models, and then uploaded them onto the pcs to then use Photoshop to edit and organize our contents and front pages. Our magazine fits a number of conventions. It follows: the 'rule of 3' to not use more than 3 colours for a scheme; it uses a large title across the top; a barcode; true life stories; a mid-close up of a model and follows the same colour scheme and models into the contents page. Me and Katie decided on a target audience of teenage girls/young women. This gave us a mass audience and we hoped to appeal to them by using girly colours like purple, headlines that would get their attention about fashion/true life stories (which women love!), and by using a title that would appeal to women 'Chic'. As we decided to design a whole new magazine, we would be targeting a new audience, hoping to draw people in with our first copy by using a pretty model, clear modern design and interesting headlines.
Overall i was really happy with my magazine front cover, i felt it looked like a professional magazine, and was done neatly and with a lot of care. Also, if i was a woman im sure i would pick up the magazine and have a flick through! However, if i was to do it differently i would chose a closer up picture, so you could see the models makeup better, and try to elaborate on the contents page more to give a better idea of what we wanted it to look like by adding more pictures and titles.
I have learnt that producing a magazine is much harder than what i thought. Photoshop was slightly unreliable making it really difficult to make due to its Text tool not quite working properly, and make me realise it takes a lot longer than i imagined to produce a top quality peice of work. Also, it takes a lot of care, it cant be rushed otherwise you get a really tacky peice of work. After producing my magazine contents n front page, i think ive decided i would like to produce a film as i had more fun producing my film prelim than my print.
