FIRST DRAFT ON MY DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD.

WHAT I LIKE AND WHAT I WANT TO CHANGE ON MY FIRST DRAFT.
I like the layout of this page, however I would like to change the colour scheme because stereotypically pink represents girls, and my magazine is for boys and girls. Therefore it has already suggests it is just for girls. So I would like to put a red or green. Also I really would like to use this picture as my front cover. So I would like to replace this picture, and I wouldn't edit it as much because her face looks abit too airbrushed.

Again I would like to change the colour scheme of this page. I like the layout of this page, however it looks very boring at the moment. Especially the random pink colour in the text. I would like to change all the questions to be a specific colour rather than mix and match because it is a bit confusing and scruffy looking. Also maybe add a pull quote or picture to draw the reader to the page more.

FIRST DRAFT ON MY CONTENT PAGE

 This is my first draft of my content page for my music magazine, I really like the colour scheme to my magazine which is red, white, and black. I really like the way I have a bold black header for the different categories as this makes it easier for the reader to find what they like. I also like the lines to my content page the lines I have put in e.g. at the bottom of all the pages included in the magazine all add to detail and make it a lot less plain, therefore I would like to add quite a few more of these at the top etc. One thing I would definitely like to change is the picture, it isn't the best quality and I think I may have edited a bit too much, therefore next time I would like to not airbrush it as much. Also one last thing I'm not sure on is, there is not enough pictures, I actually have pictures from the You Me At Six concert from last month and there fore can use them on my magazine, because content pages are usually full on pictures.
