Final Post

Guys, it's over, I've handed in my final cut of my front cover, contents page and double page spread and I've finished my evaluation which is the previous post. So this road has came to an end, this is goodbye. Thank you to everyone who supported me and this journey.

Media Evaluation

Video for my evaluation

This is the video under question 5 'How did you attract/address your audience?' and how they reacted to my rough cut of my magazine

Using The Studio

Over the course of time, I've used the studio multiple times. I've used the for the preliminary and rough cut for all my photos. On the first time I used the I really didn't use the lighting opportunity available, making me photo shop the model out of photo and onto a coloured back ground.

While the second time for my rough cut, I used light box to make the photo better as it makes sharper for pictures taken especially for the double page spread and the front cover.

During the shoot for my final cut I experimented with lighting by having one on and the other off and play with the lighting opportunities. This caused great effects compared to the pictures with both lights on instead.

rough cut vs preliminary task contents

As we see there is a major difference such as content and images seen.

Having more pictures on the rough cut and having better font on the contents pages.

That the rough cut contents page is much more clear as the writing all starts at the same point unlike the preliminary task.


Also filling space on the contents on the rough cut as the rough cut just looks empty full of space that could of been used.

rough cut vs final cut D.P.S

The last and final page of my magazine pages is my double page spread which there is a massive comparison.

Let's start with the photo. It's a 'on  location' image compared to the rough cut, studio shot. This shows diversion as no other shot is 'on location' to make the image on my double page spread image stand out from the rest.

Also placing the article on the other side of the spread is definitely the second biggest change as it goes against the conventions of a normal magazine by having it on the left than on the right. Also having the change of the black to white to make it easier to stand out from the background of the location.

I also changed the band name location to be more condensed together which fits the page perfectly and the removal of the massive purple under bar, which I only had to fill space as I didn't have an 'on location' shot as it was studio but with an 'on location' I let the background fill the spread.

Overall I believe the change and decision of the development of my double page spread it really shows the quality multiplying to make it a high standard.   

  

Rough cut vs Preliminary task

Here is my rough cut and preliminary task and I just want to compare them as this stage I finished my final cut of my media product.

As you can see the image is a long shot while the preliminary is a close up shot. Along with the point that they're both studio shots but one hasn't been photo shopped and placed it with a dark blue background.

Comparing them you can see the quality of the task and rough cut is doubled the amount.
