AICE Media Studies AS- Tuck, R

 I made many changes to my magazine from what I originally had. Most of these changes were in the layout of the magazine, specifically my feature article. I felt like my feature article was very plain and basic and I wanted to make sure that it would look appealing and not boring, especially to my target audience. My layout before was just a paragraph of text with one picture in the corner which reminded me more of a book then a magazine. Instead of having my paragraph of text ( the directions to the beignet recipe) I split each step up with a picture and put it in a box shape on the pages. I thought this looked a lot more interesting and was eye catching. I also numbered each picture with its corresponding text, so it would be easy to follow.  I  moved my mast heads around and changed the color of them and I took some colors from my cover page and added them to my other pages to make things flow better and not look so different. In Premier Pro I used the Ellipse tool in ...

 I got a lot of amazing feedback from my peer reviews this week. Some of the things my peers said were to add more colors on my pages, more pictures, and just move things around to look more appealing.  The pictures I think I will want to take and add in, are pictures of the restaurant Café Du Mon and a picture of beignet sauces along with beignets (Beignets are fun, so make it look more fun!) . Another idea a peer gave me was to layer pictures which I really liked and I will definitely do. I also want to add boarders around my pictures to make them stand out more and add more "texture" to my page. A color I want to add to the background of my pages is either a coffee color or a sand paper color. I think this will make the pages less bland but also still follow along with the theme. Other little things I need to do are to maybe add another interview into my feature article, add month and year on the issue, and line up pictures on my table of contents (to look more organized)....
