Final Finished Product, Contents Page

I have made the changes to my contents page, I have changed the colour of the background to a gradient fill to help establish a house style through colour scheme, this colour is used on the front cover so it helps to create consistancy and link the products.
 

Final Finished Product, Cover Page

This is my final finished cover page. I have edited the main image because I realised that under my  arms still had part of the background on it, I have made this change so that my products will gain higher marks...

Representation

Representation
In my product I have represented different types of groups within society. The age group which I have aimed to attract is 15-16 year olds, the reason for this is because my magazines animated style will attract this age group. In this age group the sex will be mainly males also. The age and gender I have chosen has also been influenced from the questionnaires have shown that 40 year old males and females would not like to read my magazine. However my questionnaire also says that males and females under the age of 30 would like to read my magazine.

Image Editing

Image Editing


The new version of fireworks CS6 is what i used to edit my main image. This combined with Photoshop gave me access to tools which could improve the look of my image. Tools such as the blur tool and the crop tool. Slide share and Prezi are also two new types of software I had never used before however they are very straight forward and i got the hang eventually. Prezi is what I used to complete the overall evaluation. The reason I chose to use Prezi and not powerpoint was because I thought that Prezi was more enjoyable to watch and you can incorporate new features into it. I have also used Bubbl.us to show my colour symbolism however thought that this was the most amatuer presenting tool. 

Colour Palettes

This is my colour symbolism, I had issues with the network I was using at the time so I was unable to embed the BBubbl.us on to my Blogger. Therefore I screengrabbed the page and have uploaded it this way.

Updated Final Draft for Front Cover.

This is my updated version of my front cover page, i did a survey and asked 20 people what they think i could do to improve, and then took the answers into consideration and made the changes.

The changes were simply just adding more content to the front cover pages. The next change was to make the text 'Fresh New Music' fit into the border which it is in.
