Magazine Front Cover & Contents Page FEEDBACK

Student Name 2: James	How To Improve
Level/ Mark	Front Cover	Contents Page
Front cover: Level 4 - 50 marks A very good cover page! I couldn’t find much wrong with it, so you should have it finished in no time! Contents page: Level 3 – 38 marks In terms of presentation, it looks very good, like the front cover! However, a lot of the conventions of a contents page aren’t there. See the improvement notes for more examples of that.	-          Consider making the ‘Issue #1’ font a bit smaller. It doesn’t need to be so large. -          You could add a skyline at the bottom of the page in order to add a little extra puff to the page. -          Is the anchorage text for the cover image one sentence or three different phrases? Please make this clear.	-          There’s a lot of empty space on the page and not many contents. You can solve both problems by adding more contents! You can consider having a heading for ‘Regulars’, ‘Reviews’ and whatever else you think is appropriate. -          You don’t have to put how many pages each article runs for, and some of them, like the one for ‘Brick Lane Show’ are wrong. -          You could also add an Editor’s Note, social media links, smaller pictures or an advertisement for subscription. Miss Schoburgh said that in your coursework they’ll be looking for a variety of images, so it’d be a good idea to add some of those in. -          Spell check your work in order to make it more presentable.

FRONT COVER DRAFT

Music Magazine DRAFT

This is a draft of a magazine that I made. I used a close up picture with someone wearing gold teeth to represent the gold standard of the magazine. I enlarged text that i wanted to stand out such as VIBEZDOT as this is the name of the artist that the main article is about.
