I have tried to keep to Wyke's colour scheme, using purples and greens. I used a plain font, but made it stand out with bright colours and a black border around the font. I chose to use a black border so that the colour of the font would stand out yet won't get lost with the colours of the background. I think that I should have applied this to the sub-headings in the bottom left-hand corner, as you can hardly see what they say. The sub-headings are quite interesting for students, so I thought to try and grab the audiences attention to place headings on the front that would make them want to purchase the magazine to find out more.
The background is of the new main building "Oak" at the front of the college with two students smiling, this image is also relevent to the title of the magazine, I chose to take the picture here, as it is the first building you enter, and it also has the logo of the college on the side of the building. I think that the photo of the students which I have flipped and photoshopped onto the background are friendly and make the audience feel more welcome to the college and makek them want to read more of the magazine, this also represents the college, as a warm and friendly place to be, this helps welcome new students and parents.
Jess, you could have done so much better than this had you worked consistently on your project. I know that you are aware of your own organisational / time management short-comings, but I am perplexed by why it is that you seem happy to repeat previous mistakes and settle for a mediocre mark when you could achieve much better? The problems are:
ReplyDelete- You submitted 37 minutes after the deadline
- You posted your evaluation a week late (the 30th, though it says the 23rd) which I can tell because I am informed of EVERY post any of you make and the time and date that it was made by blogger.com. Despite seeming a bit daft, I am all too aware that you can change the date of posting in the settings to your blog.
- You needed to have done more drafts of your work to show the development process. However, this was impossible for you, as you did this work at the last minute.
Disappointing stuff all in all. Your tutor has been informed.
