This is my finished front cover, contents page and double page spread;
This is my finished front cover; since the last time I posted an image of my front cover I have added several things. I have added two more features down the left hand side of the page as it was bare; I have also added a pug which I have talked about in my last two posts. Overall, I am happy with my front cover as I feel I have used all codes and conventions needed to make it a realisic-looking product. I think the red colours in my front cover really draw attention to my audience as it is a very vibrant colour, similar to the yellow colour used. I think the picture of my star really shows the genre I am trying to convey; due to the attitude on the womans face, the bright red lipstick - trying to make a statment and the way she is opening her jacket to show more flesh.
I feel my contents page is the weakest out of all my pieces; however I do think I have managed to use all the codes and conventions needed in a contents page. An element I really like about my contents is the way I have included my masthead; I feel this helps the front cover and contents to flow and link together. I also like the colour scheme in my contents page, it helps it all to flow therefore would help the audience to read it easily. Since the last time I posted about my contents I have added quite a lot to it including the pictures, writing and numbers.
I am pleased with my double page spread; I think the red used in the dps carries on the colour scheme therefore helps it to link with the contents and front page; the pose portrays a R'n'B genre, as similar to the front cover the woman has attitude and a lot of flesh is showing, also the heels are a statement and look like something an R'n'B singer would wear. I have managed to keep a formal and informal tone in my interview, with the person questioning being formal and my star being informal.
