Summary of the Front Cover Feedback Questionnaire

During the questionnaire, it was said that the colour scheme was simple but affective, the general

comment, in addition was also that the magazine looked conventional. Furthermore, the

respondents felt the covers were appropriate; this is definitely a feature that will stay the same. The

layout was also praised, coupled with this, the images were largely commended. The font styles

came under little scrutiny. The use of San serif was a quality that was appreciated. One of the

respondents also said that the images looked professional.

Having said this, there were also aspects, the group didn’t like. For example a suggestion was that

some of the font colours should be changed to make them more legible. The images could also be

clearer. Furthermore the text overlapping the images could be moved to make them clearer. The

white and plain background was a persistent complaint, from the majority who took part. Some of

the font styles may also need changing

To improve the magazine front cover, the points within the second paragraph are the aspects that

need addressing. So, I will review the front cover and select the colours that need modifying to a

more legible shade or colour. To add to this the position of particular fonts will be changed so they

do not overlap the image, and become unreadable. The background needs to be changed, so the

new one will make the cover be more interesting. I will also change some of the font styles so they

are not jumbled.

These are the improvements I will complete; this will help me increase the quality of the finished

front cover.
