Targets

Front cover

• Masthead bigger – ‘P’ needs to be enlarged to catch attention of readers quicker when magazine is on the shelf
• Capital ‘i’ in independent
• Put the word ‘TOP’ in a different colour – red to match colour scheme?

Contents 

• Add red somewhere else on the page – lower down where it is scarce
• Align cover lines
• Make line spacing the same on all cover lines
• Check good English – ‘tells behind the scenes’ ?
• Don’t overdose on the word ‘tells’
• Apostrophe on ‘editors’
• Try moving the editor’s note around – provocative photo so maybe cover a bit of it?
• Put the name of the artist somewhere around or on the album cover
• One of the lines surrounding ‘CONTENTS’ put into red to match colour scheme?

Double page spread

• Paragraphs in the article – needs more space – overwhelming for reader
• Spotify logo on the ‘Mirrors’ box
• Large gap on the bottom right – move the photo down?
• Quotes in article – longer third quote? add another small one? rearrange?
• Bring in some red – match the colour scheme of the magazine
• Main quote under headline – make it the same blue as ‘Prodigy’
