Rough Cut Student Feedback 9/4/16

I also decided to ask my fellow classmates what they thought of my finished rough cut designs. I  asked for positive and negative comments so that I can make the necessary improvements but hold on to the effective features. Here is the feed back I received:

Positive Comments:

• Front Cover- Good layout, variety of fonts, convetional image, looks professional, lots of information
• Contents Page- Effective use of offers, clear layout, well placed images, large variety of information
• Double Page Spread- Nice layout, stylish fonts, creative image, text is positioned well

Improvement Comments:

• Front Cover-  Perhaps include some coloured fonts, slightly less text, put price next to barcode
• Contents Page- Larger spaces between stories, too busy and overcrowded, reconsider font sizes
• Double Page Spread- Image possibly too similar to front cover, unsure about relevance to the clock 

In general, I completely agree with all the comments that have been made. By receiving feedback from people in the same age group as my target audience, it will really help me to adapt it in order to suit their tastes. This set of feedback has encouraged me to think more about layout and the sizing of certain features.
