THE IMPORTANCE OF FEEDBACK

After reading through your evaluations it is clear that not many of you actually got any feedback on your magazines so there is no evidence of which decision were successful or not.

Remember you are not creating magazines for yourselves-the success of your magazine depends on whether or not people actually want to read it or not- you will only know this if you ask people their opinions.

Class and homework for this week and next. All tasks due Friday 29th November.

Tasks

Finish research questions
Complete page 2 (target audience) of magazine research booklet
Create a mood board of different titles for your magazine (even if you have already chosen it) and get audience feedback (at least 5 different people). Use social media as much as possible to get feedback and screen grab the results (but please don't make yourself vulnerable by putting your name or links to facebook etc on your blog). Twitter is a good medium to use if you have an account.
Explain your choice of title and say why you chose it.
Once your title has been chosen do the same as above but for a range of fonts.
Explain your choice of font and why you chose it.
Plan your photographs (see magazine research booklet for ideas of how to do this). Draw sketches of what you want your photos to look like, upload these onto your blog and justify your decisions.
