NEA Part 6 - Product Style Profile

In this post i will be learning the importance of sketching and planning my magazine. I believe that sketching is important as the sketches will influence my stylistic decisions and reflect my final product piece. DRAFT 1 The above images are a first draft of the magazine cover and double page spread. I asked the opinions of other students who gave back positive and negative feedback.

As well as this, on my double page spread the pictures and text are all over the place. To improve this i must keep my pictures on one side instead of alternating them.    DRAFT 2 In my second draft, overall i got positive feedback but there were some improvements needed. On the cover page, the title should be bigger in order for the audience to read it and catch their attention. As well on my double pa...
