The first draft for the front cover of my music magazine.
Self Assessment. For my magazine I have assessed it on a google slide, here you can see what I would change and do differently or better, then also what I think worked effectively. This self assessment in necessary as it’s a good way to reflect appropriately on the pro’s and con’s of my magazine. I can also use this as a guideline for my future drafts and final piece.
Below is my self assessment of my first draft:
Overall I feel I see a lot of ways to improve my cover, I have learnt different techniques and have learnt more about the design of a cover through some experience, which is good. 5 specific targets I have to improve are;
Find a better quality photo
Get a photo that represents my brand and photo even better
More persuasive language in my cover lines whilst keeping them short and snappy
Add a little more colour to find a more exciting hip-hop aesthetic
Find or make a better more exciting background to make the cover less basic and boring
