Draft images:

The draft images for the final magazine product:
Draft Images

Write up for the draft designs:
- The draft designs turned out okay, however, some improvements for the final product could be:
* Better designed contents page overall, with a colour scheme relating more to the designated colour palette.
* Better cut-outs of images, which are moderate at best.
* Possibly have a less varied amount fo colours.
* Include more images for various reasons including meeting accuracy for mock-up designs, representation of the product, appealing to the target audience due to interest in visual content, etc...
* Improved background for the contents page, which looks somewhat dull excluding colours and images.
- What I did like about my designs was that they fit in with all conventions and the standard design and alyout of a magazine. Excluding cut-outs and a few minor faults, the magazine looks professional when purely based on layout and design qualities of the draft product.
- Another thing that fits in with the draft designs is how all of the pages look similar and are shown to be realted as part of the same project. For instance, the Key Point title/logo appears on each of the designs, representing how they are all connected as part of the same product. Also, the white background, or mostly white in the case of the double page spread. Also, the colour yellow is used for some of the text on each page, as a more subtle example. Basically, all of the designs fit togtehr via similar features. This adds to the professional representation of the product as a whole.
