My Final Front Cover

After reflecting on this feedback, I have decided to do a second final draft to ensure my magazine appears more conventional and professional, but to also take the opinions of the target audience into consideration, making sure my magazine definitely appeals to my target audience.

I have decided to add a sell line below the masthead which reads “Alternative Indie Music”, this helps the audience to establish the genre of the magazine.

I have also decided to change my cover image from a medium long shot to a medium close up as I have found this to be conventional and also to make sure that it engages my target audience.

Another change I have made to my front cover is the layout of the coverline. I rearanged the text so that “Music is my” is smaller and next to the name “Day” which makes the layout appear more neat. Also I made “business” to a bigger font and placed it below “is my” and “day” to make the front cover appear more stylish, this also makes sure it is appealing to my target audience.

Also, to fill in some of the free space, I added some extra coverlines on the left hand side of the page so that there are other pieces of information on the front cover which attracts my target audience.
