Questionnaire

I made a questionnaire which i gave out to most of my friends in class. I included questionnaires to do with the genre of magazine, 3 main colours, the price, things they liked and things they didnt like. When i got the questionnaires back i was quite happy with the results were very similar on each questionnaire answer. The most things that people didnt like were either the price or its not the genre they are interested in which is fair enough. Everyone had the same 3 colours answered as green, yellow and grey however some thought instead of grey they thought it was red.

After the Teacher Marked

When we recieved are work back we were given a mark, my mark was a D and with a bit of editing my predicted grade would be a C. This also made me realise how much work had to really be done to get a good grade. I had to edit my front cover a bit and after doing that i ended up with a completly different front cover which looked a whole lot better. I only really had to change my front cover so it would look a lot more professional . I now feel a lot better about what my grade can be now.
Photo Shoot

My chosen genre was Rap/Grime so as i said before i chosed to use my mate on the cover as he was a musician, the most important thing that i has to use carefully to show the genre strongly was clothing. I didnt want to make him wear clothing like long dark jackets with black make-up or any other dark clothing. I chose the clothing to be like silver chains, tracksuit bottoms, eckp shirt and adidas trainers. Most of my images were shot outside a brick wall or outside his house because those setting represented my genre best. And in the end the images came out looking great and i knew that putting my front cover and double page spread together would look great.
