From first to second draft.
I changed the masthead as the first one was too simple and didn't stand out much. Even though I used the font of “birth of a hero” which was my most popular font found out from my questionnaire, it didn't appear to be bold enough as a main title. I changed this to impact and made it bold with a black backdrop. I also managed to use the rubber to show my models head and rub out the bottom of the “OO”, to look professional.
The selling line was white and camoflauged into the background against the bricks. Also, as I decided to change the masthead font to impact, I changed the selling line font to birth of a hero to show a contrast of fonts used. I will also change the colour to black so it stands out more than it did.
The cover line and explanatory texts were too basic and didn't stand out much. Also, the cover line didn't look too professional as it was underline so I took this off. My main cover line looked too scruffy as it was all one colour, and my models name was underlined. I decided to change this and add a change of text which could attact my readers more. I also decided to add red into the cover line as this would stand out seeing as the only red in my cover are in the two buttons. I fixed the barcode by resizing it to the normal size as it looked outstretched. I also added a "p.12" to the button to allow my readers to access the page straight away without having to flick through.
Second to Third draft
I changed my explanatory text from birth of a hero to impact as the first font was hard to read because the font itself has many splits in the letters which could confuse the reader. I changed this to impact as it was a more simple sans serif font to read. Also, the font colour was blue which was too camoflagued with my model's clothing so I changed this to yellow; the colour of the brand image on his hat, as this stood out more. The button at the top right didn't stand out enough especially as it was informing readers that this was the first issue, so I changed the button to a white fill with red writing. I decided that the main text on my cover line should be my models name so I decided to keep this red whereas the other text was whiet. Being red, and a different font made it stand out alot and it looks eye-catching. There was space at the top of the magazine cover so I decided to split up my explanatory text and put some above to make up for the extra space. This has improved from my first and second draft.
