task 11

My finished product is exactly the same as my hand drown block design except it has a few more things added to it, but my finished product looks much more professional than my block design
By using photoshop i was able to make my background photo and text on my magazine cover blend in well
My product is ideal for my target audience as it is very eye catching to the younger generations and i have made it so it has offers and articles about stuff my target audience would be interested in
By making this magazine cover i can now use photoshop better than i ever could and i had never previously used the Macs

The main technical skill i have gained is being able to use photoshop alone

Primary and secondary research

Primary research is when you're collecting some sort of data by directly talking to people about what they know and their opinions.
Secondary data is when you read some data somebody has already published or written, because they are an expert in that field and you collect data that way. 

Analysis Audience Feedback

From people filling out my questionaire for possible titles and fonts this really helped me because it helped me decide what to actually put on my magazine, and let me knew it would attract my target audience

Most people thought bass was suitbale for the title of my magazine as it had that edge and related to music, few people thought chalk duster would be suitable but i ended up changing my title font to give it more of an edge and i think the font i chose suits my magazine perfectly

I think i could have made more of a colour scheme rather than random colours to make it look more professional but other than that i'm happy with the outcome

block designs

block design 2

Unit 18c

My final advert design is quite similar to my block design but I had to change it slightlyas I didn’t think it would look ideal to what I had wanted it to be and so i made it more intersting, I changed the layout slightlyand the background so it looks more efficient, i feel these changes i made, made my shoe advert more professional looking than my block design

Permissions for photos

When you are taking a picture that is going to be used in advertisement you need to have a model release form, which explains that money that shall be paid to them for the photos.
If an image you're using already exists you must get permission from the copyright holder to use it for commercial use. 
Generally, if you did not take the photo, you are better off to get permission, especially if you are using the photo to earn money, like in advertisement. If it’s not for a money making endeavor, and the photo is a protected work, you may be able to use it under a thing called "Fair Use".

Feedback Analysis

For Feedback on my shoe advert, i produced a word document of some questions for 6 people to fill out so i would understand what different's views are

Looking at the feedback i gathered from these people i can see there are many things i could have done better, but overall most liked the general look of my shoe advert. People thought i laid out my advert well as it's clear and easy to read, most people thought the colours of my advert stood out but they didnt really match, i had no colour scheme, People were 50/50 on my font for my title some people thought it was too girly and wouldn't suit my target audience so males wouldn't really buy this shoe.

Taking all of this feedback into consideration next time i make an advert i will take into account everything everyone my audience has said to me and make these improvements

Task 2 18c

Feedback on Shoe Advert

Finished shoe advert

task 1 18C

My advert fits all the CAP codes used by the Advertising Standards Agency. It doesn’t contain any rude or inappropriate images and it doesn’t  lie to anyone for example; it is a The Beatles inspired shoe range, but we are not claiming anyone from The Beatles has anything to do with this shoe range.
