Above is my full draft of my final magazine. I think that the improvements that I have made have been successful in conveying the pop genre. Improvements I have made include:

  • Front page:
    • moved the headline ‘Gabe’ and the pug with ‘Mia’ in down
    • moved ‘Mia’ to the left and flip image changing places with ’20 perfect pop hits’
    • added colour to the pugs that fit with the colour schemes
  • Contents page:
    • centred the text under ‘The Bucketlist’
    • made polaroid insets bigger
    • added colour to the main image
  • Double-page spread:
    • made one headline bigger than the other to clarify which one is the main headline
    • made headline more catchy
    • moved ‘Hannah Oaks’ to the bottom of the left page
    • put drop capital at the start of the article not the standfirst
    • changed the background colour – too much blue
      • added pink box behind article
      • added blue corners on pink box
    • put my main image in a polaroid picture allowing the article headline to go at the top and ‘Hannah Oaks xox’ to go at the bottom as if she was signing off
    • added ‘sssshhh!’ around the edge of the page to link in with the idea of secrets
    • put song titles in blue instead of white in article
    • added another pull quote bottom left and moved original pull quote up to the right
    • added three insets of polaroid pictures
