Today i had to finish my front cover, contents page and double page while making the front cover I thought it was the most difficult from them all. This is because i felt the front cover was so important due to the fact that it will determine if my target audience will buy the magazine or not, because my front cover drafts were not that great it made it harder for me , so i had to keep changing the design until i was satisfied with it.
I really like my contents page i felt this was easier than the front cover and double page due to the fact that, from the drafts i did previously, it helped me decide where i should position the conventions.I also researched on existing contents pages. (music magazine). This gave me an idea on how i wanted to struture my page out.
whiles producing the double page spread i believed, it was quite straight forward seeing as i had a strong idea on how i wanted to lay it out, this was due to my effective drafting (DP) i did before making the magazine which contributed a lot to my final outcome. However one problem i faced was placing the article in the columns and making sure my main image, not look stretched out.
