Preliminary Task Contents Page Feedback

Our contents page was improved a lot compared to the front cover as we got peer feedback that really helped us to complete this task better. We were told what improvements to the font, size and layout could be made and tried to take them on board. This time the fonts were much clearer and so was the text as we went with a white background instead of layering it over an image that was also quite dark.We could have used a better background colour, pattern or image though so it would have looked more bright, bold and appealing. More text could have been included too as overall the layout was quite bare. We also couldn't edit the masthead very well either as we didn't know how to use Photoshop too well and didn't get how to use the tools such as magnetic wand and magnetic lasso very well. Hopefully when I complete my music magazine I will have more practice on Photoshop and look at more inspirational text so will know how to lay out the text better. I also have a much better knowledge of the conventions of rock music magazines compared to college ones as I read them weekly.
