Complete Magazine Draft 3

Here is my third draft for my magazines front cover. I have kept many things the same from draft 2 however there are a few differences. The main ones are:

  • Added a Pug
  • Added a reference to my DPS
  • Moved the coverline text
  • De-stretched the image

Up next is my contents page. This page has changed the most since draft 2. The main differences are listed below:

  • Added a new picture for ‘Jazz Showdown’
  • Added a headline for ‘Jazz Showdown’
  • Changed the placing of certain text
  • Changed the numbers of the pages
  • Changed the colour of the page numbers

Finally there is my DPS. This one, like the front cover only had minor changes. These are

  • Changed the headline
  • Moved the headline slightly
  • Re-arranged the text in the Q&A segment
  • Adjusted the line spacing in the Q&A segment
  • Adjusted the box sizes in the Q&A segment

Below is the screencastify showing me what to do:

For my front cover I will:

  • Make Ziggy D bigger
  • Switch around the text so it doesn’t clash with Ziggy’s face
  • Move the Pug closer to the edge of the page
  • Try to further destretch the image
  • Add drop shadow to the masthead
  • Play around with the names of the stars & their sizing

For my contents page I will:

  • Change the font of all text & change the size of the smaller cover lines & the editor’s note
  • Try to make the star images pop more through things such as drop shadow and bevel and emboss
  • Change the background to try and make it work better with the page

For my DPS I will:

  • Make ‘Too Much Groove’ bigger
  • Make the Q&A’s questions smaller
  • Make the Q&A text the same size as the rest of the article
  • Move the standfirst down
  • Give K.C a quote
