Research and Planning: Magazine (2nd draft) feedback

I was told that I should increase the size of the text for some of the headlines in order to increase the view-ability of it. It was also suggested that I should move the text on the right to the left swapping it with the popcorn and away from my central image. I should also move the text into individual layers and decrease the size of the gaps in-between the sentences. And also to add certain buzzwords such as a competition etc which should go in an area in such as the top or the bottom of the page in the red banner. I could also employ another gradient at the bottom of the page to cover the brown chair a bit, and decrease the amount of colours on my cover. Adhering closer to the 3 colour rule than the first draft.

Research and Planning: Poster Draft 2 (edit)

Altered the text for 'Ace is High' to fit the line better. and also altered the underline so its not going off the page.

Research and Planning: Poster Draft 2

Made it much darker and changed the muddy grass to burnt grass  put a large quantity of layers with paint over the hand to make it look more burnt and dead

Research and Planning: Audience Feedback (Magazine)

Somebody mentioned about my magazine that I should alter my fonts to block writing and remove the underlined headlines. they said this as they thought that it would make it stand out more and attract more readers.

Here is some video of me trying this out...

Research and Planning: Voice-Over Script

Ever wondered what life would be like without your, x, y, z, a, b, c, d, e, f, g. Well you don't have to, because it's time to play a game.

(This is a basic idea for how the script would be for the voice over. x, y, z, a, b, c, d, e, f, g are all either family members or acquaintances )

Research and Planning: Magazine 2nd Attempt

I completely re-imagined my magazine. My feedback said that the text for the title was wrong, it looked tacky and didn;t fit very well with the genre I was going for. So I scrapped the majority of the idea. replaced the background with a white wall which I duplicated to make the original picture larger. I added multiple forms of text based on more than just my trailer and laid them out in a better format. The popcorn and the text which is slightly slanted was done as said. 

Research and Planning: Poster Feedback

I got some feedback on my poster. I was told by multiple people that it was good but it didn't suit its genre. It should be a bit darker and set a better tone for it. I will put some layers over it to tone down the green grass etc

Research and Planning: Equipment and Software List (Poster)

For the poster the equipment I need is:

- A camera
- Mac/ My Laptop
-

Software I will need is:

- Photoshop
-

Research and Planning: Magazine Continued

This is my magazine a bit further a head of the first draft that I put up.

I made several adjustments including making the titles and the reds brighter and moved the content around a bit to give it a better more professional look.

Research and Planning: Editing 3

We added a voice over to the trailer and now await some audience feedback to add any final touches.
