Final development of my magazine

I have finally made it. Even though all the problems I have faced I have a magazine at last.  
Anyways for my finishing touches I had to go onto photo-shop and change the gray background of my front cover image which is on the left. I did this by changing the temperature of the image as you can see on the right. Its a bit orange so I change the temperature too high. I change this again which can be seen on the bottom image and that is the image used on the front cover. With this image I also tidy up my model hair using the magic wand tool on photo-shop to erase the lose hairs and black dots on the image.

My final front page. The image I have used has a nice depth of field look and the way that the model is dressed fits my theme and will also attract my target audience as the model looks young and my audience will be more likely to buy the magazine if they see someone who looks the same age range as them. the colors and the fonts work together and help make the masthead and cover lines stand out with will help attract attention. I have made the masthead go all the way across the page as it stands out more which will grab the audiences attention. 

OK onto my content page which I know most of you will be wondering why there only one picture well I don't think I could of put any more picture in without redesigning this whole page again. Plus I like how it is as it is. I have followed the conventions of the top of the pops magazine content as they have there front cover in there content page too. I think helps appeal to the target audience of a younger audience as its a visual thing which will help readers find the articles that attracted them to the magazine in the first place. The font stands out and fits in with the pop theme. The logo is like a brand which attracts my teenage audience as they like branded things. The colors again appeal to my female target audience. I have added a secondary image to my content page as it shows different verity of images in my magazine apart from just having leah. This also makes my magazine gender neutral as I included both female and male pictures in my magazine.  


Here is my final Question and answer DPS. Ok I have made a pull quote have the text warped round it which looks better on the page then it did before. I made all the images and text boxes have borders going round them so they stand out more on the page. I re-sized the twitter logo to match the Facebook logo so it doesn't look messy. the DPS follows the colour scheme that was used through out my magazine.
