Above I have put in a copy of my draft contents page that I have made. Soon I will take what I have learned from making this to then create a better one later on. To help me understand what I have done right and what I can improve upon, I’ve had mine peer assessed. After reading this peer assessment I have created five targets that need to be met in order for my contents page become better.
What type of shots have been used to create a variety of shot distances and how has the camera been used to communicate meaning?
N/A
What choice of Mise en scene is appropriate for the star image and genre?
N/A
How far is the font used readable and reflects the genre?
The Font itself is very readable and reflects the genre of Jazz quite well with its bold colors (yellow and orange) but it might be a tad too large.
What technical conventions of a Contents page are present and used effectively?
The page has all its technical conventions that a regular content page would have; page numbers, what’s on those pages, main stars that are on those pages, etc. the page numbers are clear and easy to read and the pages the stars are on can easily be found underneath the images of the star.
How has Indesign been used to layout the page to convey a brand?
the overall layout could have been done a bit better with a better color match, black/grey with orange and yellow are very contrasting colors and they don’t compliment each other well. A better match could of been a dark navy blue and a greyish blue could of worked quite well or yellow and green, red and dark grey would have also been good with a yellow accent
How well have the text and visuals been integrated together?
The text has either been placed next to the image or on top, but not much has been done with the integration.
Where has photoshop been used to manipulate the photos to enhance the star image or genre?
N/A
How is the language used appropriate for the genre and target audience?
Using words like new, now make the reader see that it is recent and important, drawing in their attention to the information
Clearly, strong, good, satisfactory, conventional, well good sense
Low B grade
Five Targets to improve in future:
- Rework colour scheme for both text and background.
- Try and incorporate photoshop more into the making of the page.
- Use design tools of Indesign to aid in the making of the page.
- Select more MES that is specific to the genre to use throughout the page.
- Use several different shots to create meaning through photos.
