A new reviewed version of the magazine

I had listened to the feedback from the survey and acted on it.





I was then told that this is a lot better as it shows things in the school happening from day to day. It is very eye catching and looks effective and will draw people in to read it and purchase the magazine. I have kept the same colour scheme and font as I was told it looked very effective and uses the school colours.

First copy made of magazine

I made a copy of my first draft of my magazine.




I made this copy of my media magazine.

General Feedback.

 The magazine was good but wasn't really to do with the school. The pictures were good and eye catching but not really relevant. It would be better to have pictures from school and showing people from school doing something interesting and make us pick up the newspaper.
It didn't really appeal to everyone as they looked at the front cover and decided not to buy it as they don't like badminton.

First draft of school magazine

I tried to include everything which was recommended to me by the survey I carried out.  I have arranged it so it will look eye catching and pleasing to the eye and get the reader to pick it up.

Magazine Survey Results

I made a survey on http://www.surveymonkey.com/.

I typed up the results below:

1. How important is the college logo to you?

Overall it says that the college logo shown on the magazine is key. I had originally thought this but having the view from the students was very important.

2. Would you like sport to be involved on the front cover?

This didn't seem to be very important to the readers but they thought a photo would be nice.

3. Is the date and price on the front cover important?

This appeared to be vital to everyone which is what i was hoping they said because the magazines I had studied both show the price clearly. Also the date appeared to very important as they wanted to clearly know what issue number they had.

Here the date and price are clearly shown above the cow's head. This is very important to the reader to know how much they are paying and if they have the latest copy.

 4. Is it very important to show a clear bold heading?

Yes we would really like a clear bold heading on the magazine as it will distinguish my magazine from others.
