Classmate critique

For our final drafts, we all shared them with each other. As we shared, we had to collect different thoughts and critiques from our classmates. Now that I have collected all the data, here is what I have learned.

Classmate Critiques

• The evil eye is a nice touch on the magazine cover.

• The page numbers are clear and readable, so as the TOC.

• There is a good amount of writing on the DPS.

• They all follow a certain color scheme.

Classmate Critiques

• The headlines need to be spread out.

• The cover line needs to be bigger and more noticeable.

• Get rid of the shadow behind the shapes in the TOC.

• Lighten up the title on the cover to make it more noticeable.

Reflection

From the amount of critiques In have had, I realize what I need to change. I need to refine my cover and tweak just a bit with my table of contents also, but its an easy fix.

Implementation

For my cover, I will drag and place a a lighter banner shape and change its position so that the title pops out even more. I will then drag and place the headlines across the cover, shrinking them a bit so they fit the cover more better. After that, I will move to the TOC.. I will click on the shapes and click edit, getting rid of the shadow that I implemented behind them. I will also get rid of the pattern on the top to remove all the unnecessary clutter behind the page title.
