http://prezi.com/7jojguvqbzkp/evaluation/
This is the link for my prezi evaluation, I think that I did this to a high standard and had a good evaluation. The one thing I could of improved on is the amount of questions I done, I believe I could have done a couple more, this would have helped me have a better evaluation in more depth. However I am happy with what I have done.
This is the picture I used on my contents page, I chose this because in my magazine I have a quote saying 'Im on my way to the top', this picture shows him walking up the stairs on the way to the top. This picture shows him in his normal clothes so it appeals to the audience who can relate to this and who wear the same clothes.  
This is the picture that I chose to use for my double page spread, I chose this because again it shows alex in that ghetto/gangster lifestyle. This makes alex appealing to the audience because it shows him in the grime light so people will automatically know what genre it is just by the picture.

I used this picture for my front cover. I chose to have this picture because its a picture from a low angle which makes him look bigger than the reader which is intimidating. I chose for him to wear these clothes because its for the style and type of magazine that it is, he looks like a gangster due to him wearing baggy clothes and a basball cap.
The next posts will be all my pictures i took myself for my magazine.

I am happy with the final products of my magazine, I have put a lot of effort and time into it. I also tried very hard to put it all together which makes me more proud of the final copy.

This is my music magazine contents page, this took quite a lot of time to sort out all the colours and to choose where to put the photos to go. I believe this is took my standards and i enjoyed working on it. I believe that i could of improved on the quality of the photos, if i had more time then i could have got a better camera so the photos are of a much better quality, which would make my magazine look a lot more professional. I could have imporved on my contents page by my writing colour, due to it being a brick wall back ground some of the writing is not as visible as others, this makes it harder for the reader to read which could eventually make them stop buying it.

This is the final copy of my double page spread, as you can see i had three of the same photo to add an affect then the rest was questions. I dont this to make my double page spread to look as professional as possible, to do this i kept my text all the same and kept the colours consistant. I could have also changed the writing colour on my double page spread, this would have made it look a lot more proffesional and would have made it a lot easier to read.
This is my front cover of my music magazine, it took time to get uit to this stage. I had a rough first copy but then kept adding and taking away parts of it to make it better. I am proud with my final product because i have put a lot of hard work and effort into it. On my front cover I could have improved on my font, instead of having all the font the same style I could have changed it up and had different fonts. This would have given my magazine more variety and made it look more proffesional.

Today we got a magazine cover, stuck it to an A3 sheet of paper and analysed the front cover. We did this so we could find techniques that proffesional magazine publishers use.

After my first lesson this morning working on my perspectus i finally finnished, i am happy with my work because it was my first time using photoshop.

After taking our photos last lesson we started on putting our photos together for our perspectus. I found this very hard because i had never used photoshop before so it makes it a first for me.

After we planned our perspectus out last lesson we started to take our photos. Because I planned my whole perspectus I  knew where to go for my photos. I took three, they consisted of a boy in class, a boy playing football and a picture of the sixth form block. I chose these because these are the three main aspects of the school, lesson, sport and the building itself.

Today we started our school perspectus. We started off by planning and drawing out a rough copy of what we hope our perspectus to look like. I planned it on a A4 sheet of paper, I decided to have 3 photos because i can show lesson, sport and the school building. I believe this will help parents see what the school is like and what enviroment their child will be in on a day to day basis.
