Evaluation Question 5- How did you attract/address your audience?

How did you attract/address your audience?
Below is a video of my target audience covering their first perceptions of my magazine. I have also written up my question and answer session from the video and this is pasted below.


Q/A: What are your first impressions of the magazine?
I like it, it looks quite professional and up market.  I like the concept of the magazine, it seems innovative and original. 
Does it, in your opinion, look like a magazine that you would find on a magazine stand?
I think it does, as I said before it looks quite professional and  it has a lot of the normal magazine features.
What are its strengths and weaknesses?
Well I’ll do strengths first,  One strength would be, I liked how you used the same colour as her dress as in title that gives it more flow and also I like the use of bringing in the white writing on the background to make it stand out. It also has quite a glossy feel to it.  On the front cover I also like the sticker/ Banner it blends the writing with the banner. Ok so the weaknesses, it is hard but I would say that maybe  The orange on the front page is too bright and means that it’s not in keeping with the house style.
What would you change about the magazine to make it more realistic?
I would make the tag-line slightly bigger and change the colour scheme around a bit other than that it is a good product I really like it and would buy it if I had the chance.
Thank you for your time and opinions they are deeply appreciated.

I also attracted my target audience through social media/networking by creating a Facebook page for my magazine. This meant that I could broaden and specify my target audience. People were allowed to make comments and also suggestions for improvements.



Evaluation Question 6- What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?



have learnt a great deal about technologies from the process of constructing my product. I used many technologies such as;






I used a variety of tools in each of the four programmes above. In blogger I learnt how to embed videos and to create multi-media posts. I mainly used piknik to edit my image. I used it to adjust the brightness, exposure and contrast and I also used the airbrushing tool to airbrush my model slightly but also the background.




Evaluation Question 7 - Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
