Aim And Purpose The Purpose of this slideshow of my initial Ideas for a new media magazine

is to achieve some peer feedback of my current ideas, This in turn will help me better understand my target audiences wants and needs from the magazine that am designing and will help to make it as successful as possible.

I require this feedback to decide which one of three ideas to chose for my final decision and continue on the road of construction with and to achieve the greatest possible outome.

Similar Content to KERRANG

Target Audience: 16 – 20 Both genders

Colour Scheme – Metallic style colours such as silvers, greys with highlights of white, black, Yellow and red.

Font Choices Idea 3

Peer decision My Peers voted for the final magazine ‘I AM’ of the genre alternative music,

they stated that in their eyes the ideas seemed to be better thought out that the other ideas and that the sections of the magazine merge together better, They also made positive comments on the colour scheme and said that they would like to see the magazine look like ‘Q’ or ‘Kerrang’ but preferably a meet in the middle between the two existing publications. The chosen font from the options was a deadlock between the first and second fonts on the ‘I AM’ font options page. And as such I will cast a final decision and have the selected the first font.
