Survey Monkey Graph Analysis- School Magazines


My Survey Monkey results show that people preferred the masthead of Design A and the main image of design A the most. This means I know what image attracts people to the magazine and it is a high quality image of a person.
The results show that 5/6 people (83.3%) would be attracted by a puff of a notepad to purchase the magazine. This shows that free 'stuff' is a factor as to what people look for when buying a magazine.
Graph 7 shows that the masthead and the puff are the most important features that people look for when buying a magazine.

Overall, my results show that Design A was the most popular and the features of the design were the best out of the 3 designs.

2nd Draft Copies of School Magazine


These are my second draft copies of my school magazine. I have included different mastheads for each design. The layouts are different because of the position of the main image and where the cover lines are. The masthead is at the top of both magazines. The colours are similar with red, black and blue featuring in both magazine covers.

Masthead Designs

Masthead Designs 

Here are a list of mastheads that I have designed for my school magazine.

Design 1- This is appropriate to Plantsbrook School as the bubble writing is in red and there is the logo underneath. It is in bold writing which is clear to read. 

Design 2- This design is red dots and blue bubble writing. It is more colourful that the previous design and it is clear that it is a magazine with the word mag. 

Design 3- This design is more Gothic, as the colours black and red. it is in a rectangular shape with school PB written in the centre. The background is shaded in black.

Photography so far

So far in photography, I have learnt different types of photos such as depth of field and how to recognize it. 
Also I have learnt what a visual lead in is and how it draws the viewers attention towards the main image or feature of the picture. This can be done by placing the image along a fence or at the end of a railway. 
Also there is the image of movement which means you take the image while the object is moving such as someone on a bike or in a car. This creates a good effect on the image and the viewer can tell that its moving.
