Draft Num1 - Before and After (with annotations):

Magazine Draft Before:

Masthead: this needs more emphasis so that it grabs your attention more. At the moment it is quite plain, bland and boring. -It needs to be more eye catching! I will try and make it bigger and bolder in order to achieve this.

Colour of the Text: The purple is hard to read and make out, you need to be able to read it easily. I will look at different colours of text to see if I like any, or I might just outline the purple writing with black so that you can read it and it still has the same colour scheme.

Amount of Text: There is too much text about Daniel and Connor making it through to the final stage of Xfactor, this is more appropriate for the contents page so I will take this off the front page and place it on the contents instead.

Pictures: The main image works well however the images on top dont seem to be part of the maazine as they have just been placed on top of the main image. Instead of just 'placing' them on there I will either give them a border, making them smaller, I could position them together and make them look as if the are also a  main part of the magazine.

Magazine Draft After:

Masthead: I  have outlined the title with purple to make it stand out more and made the writing bigger, as well as changing the text to make it more bold.

Colour of the Text: The purple was hard to read so I decided to outline the purple text in black so that it stood out more and was readable. this worked well because the colour sheme could stay the same.

Amount of Text: I got rid of th text about Daniel and Connor making it through to the final stage of Xfactor, and instead will use it on the contents page as suggested above.

Pictures: I made both images smaller and placed one on top of the other so they looked like more of a unit and moved them to the bottom left hand corner and placed information about a party above it so that there wasnt an empty space.
