The document summarizes changes made to improve the layout and design of a magazine based on feedback from an audience. Key changes included making the title on the front cover bigger and using a more appropriate font. The sticker layout and pull quote were also updated. Additionally, text alignment was improved on the inside pages and dates/prices were moved by the barcode for consistency. Fonts, images, and effects were standardized across pages to create a more cohesive and professional publication.

3. Made the title of the magazine bigger so it
is more eye catching.
I have changes the font of the bigger text to a more
appropriate font to fit in better with the magazine
genre. I also changed the pull quote so that the
magazine had a better tone to it.
I have changed the sticker layout, I
think that the new version looks a
lot more effective and professional
than before I think that wording
has also improved.
I have changed the alignment of the text along the
right hand side I think it looks neater and more
professional, it didn’t look as effective going along
the outline of the tree putting it to the left has
made it look less clustered and messy.
When looking at other magazines the date and price
are often by the barcode, I moved this to fit in with
other similar magazines.

5. I changed the font of the heading
to keep in theme with the front
cover fonts and the font makes it
look more effective as an indie
magazine. I have aligned the number
properly and made all the
numbers one colour to make
the magazine look more
professional.
I changed the effects on the frames
from a bevel to a drop shadow, I
thought that this made the photos
look better and didn’t take away
from the images like the bevel did.

7. I changed the font , layout and size of the title,
I looked at other magazines and from my
audience feedback I found that having the
artist name was more common then an actual
title, I think it looks more professional and
tidier in the page.
