3rd Quarter Submission Revisions

For my revisions to my 3rd quarter submission, I didn't change much about my title page. I received some good feedback on it, but I decided to change the color of one of the subheadings. The yellow made it stand out and gave the cover a vibrant and spring time look.

I got really good feedback on my table of contents, so I decided not to change it too much. I conducted a third photo shoot, so I decided to add one of the pictures from that to my table of contents. I also moved some of the page numbers to make sure they were in the right spot on the picture.

For my article, I decided to change the entire layout. Originally, my partner and I had agreed that our articles should follow a very similar layout as that would ensure unity between the issues. Upon further research, we found that many magazines had articles within each issue that were formatted differently. For our magazine, this worked to differential between my craft article and her cooking article Throughout issues we decided that each different type of article would follow a slightly different format. This differentiates between the different types of articles in our magazine.

3rd Quarter Submission Feedback

I didn't get too much feedback on my project. Mr. Elsbree suggested that I move some of my subtitles up so that they would be directly over the white background rather than being over both the white background and the wood table. I also noticed that when you saw my cover on my blog, it appeared to be over saturated. I will definitely look into that. I was also questioned about the size of my pictures on the second page of my article. The sizing of the stacked pictures were different, which is not very conventional. My partner had also incorporated this technique into her article so we both made the decision to make the sizes of the pictures more similar. When I looked back at my midterm submission, I noticed that I had included a pull-out quote. I did not intentionally leave this out of my revision so I would like to add one back in before submitting my final submission. I got really good feedback on my table of contents, but I feel that it doesn't really match with my magazine. To remedy this I am planning on streamlining the color scheme more to give the magazine a more cohesive feeling.
