Final Feedback Session

-

Due to the great feedback session from last time, I will now share the results from this one. The main results have been shown through the last two posts with the cover page and table of contents. While I didn’t get this feedback primarily from the session, I accumulated feedback (from others) to produce what I had to produce. For instance, the cover titles were changed because of the positioning I had last time. I also change the color of the font which allowed them to be more easily read.

In addition, although I didn’t receive as much feedback from the table of contents, I was told to add a part with sections that way the audience doesn’t only have 4 pages set as landmarks to the entire magazine. Adding this section would simply make it easier for the reader to navigate through the entire magazine.

Lastly, I got the idea that I should do “Must-do Things At The Beach” as my main article because those are usually entertaining to a greater percent of the population.

Overall, the feedback sessions are great and have helped me drastically improve my magazine, since one change can lead to many other great changes.

The final product is basically the same as what I have posted for the table of contents and cover page. The next two posts will contain my final product and CCR.

In this blog post I will be primarily talking about colors and fonts to put on the magazine. But first my group and I have come to final decisions on magazine issue locations... I will be doing Miami, Gabriel will be doing Panama, and Jose will be doing Switzerland. Jose would have done Venice but he didn’t have enough properly photographed pictures for the magazine in Venice, so he decided to switch to Switzerland. Now that we have that down, let’s move on to our magazine production! I have very little time this week to actually start taking pictures for the magazine so I will be doing more basic things that will help me create my magazine once I do take the pictures. One of the most important things in any sort of picture is to set a mood or a “vibe”. This can be acheived by using certain color palettes since there is psychology behind seeing certain colors. The color palette I will like to focus on will involve cool hues. This is because cool hues convey a sense of...

Finally I found some time to create drafts of both the title page and the table of contents. Here it is:      Right off the bat it's important to note that these are not my pictures. I will be incorporating my pictures to some structure that looks like this. All I have to do is actually go and take the pictures. When I do take the pictures I will critically analyze the weaknesses of my magazine thus far. Next up should be drafting a double page spread...
