EVALUATION CRITERIA
Candidates will evaluate their work electronically. This MUST contain an element of audience feedback and may be either integrated with the presentation of the research and planning material or may be presented separately.

5.How did you attract/address your audience?
6.What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
7.Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

Photoshoot

I've organised a photoshoot for Feb 9th with one female model for my front cover and follow up interview pictures.

I'm aiming to achieve a "hippie" effect for the front cover with contrasting colours. The model I've chosen has red hair and green eyes, I'm going emphasise these colours later on photoshop for a strikingly colourful effect.

Lately, I've been experimenting with the InDesign programme. Exploring the potential with this programme has really helped define the possibilities for my music magazine, I now know what I can create while always maintaining a professional manner.
