Post Production Survey - Contents Page
"I really like the layout of the magazine, its very simple easy to follow and very well made, you could tell a lot of thought went into this. The images are clear and well spaced out and I love how there are so many images to look at, usually magazines only have about 2-3 this went all out with 6 excluding the Advert and editors note
As much as I liked it I found the 'Inside this week' title thing a little bit boring almost like a newspaper - the same goes with the mini advert on the bottom right hand side, its just text on a white background, maybe it needed a few images of the magazine to show the 'Variety' of issues on offer"

"I like this contents page because of its simplicity, its engaging but most importantly efficient. The page numbers are nice and bold and with a wide variety of images with each artists' showing off different styles, attitudes and personalities. The advert is also simple and direct which I like.
But I am not very keen on the brightness of the centre image, I felt it was slightly too dark for me. Also I flet that the dateline did not need to be in italics, it kinda reduced the feel of the magazine. However I still this content remains visual, effective and sophisticated"

"I found this contents page most refreshing because of its layout, well spread out across the page. Typically, you tend to see that one main image or two with a list on page numbers running down the side of it. This had a wide variety of pictures. I really like the pictures individually - all possessing different qualities and styles which makes this page far more engaging.
I felt that the advert should have images to make it more attractive but I get that they do tent to look quite tacky. I also felt that the page numbers were too big. I would have it smaller"

"Everything about this contents page seem to go perfectly for me. The layout is great easy to follow and does the job by giving me a lot of information about what different features are in the magazine this week. The page numbers were bold and big for those with sensitive. Also the title has a nice font told and sophisticated.
However I felt that the magazine lacked a bit of colour with the white background, if it was my magazine I would have added a red strip at the top of the contents page to add a bit more excitement to it. Also although the images were very engaging!"

"I found the images were of good quality, well focused. I also the characters NVC - especially facial expression suited the 'rock theme'. I also liked how you used quotes rather than article title, it makes things refreshing! The big numbers make things easy to navigate.
However I did feel that the pictures were kinda repetitive, the image on the left to me looks really plane - his straight face makes him look almost to disinterested. I found the guitar far more interesting. Also the editors note didn't really suit the contents page, the font looks completely different and the text to me looks far too small"

"I like the pictures especially the one of 'Jake Roberts' I think he looks very aggressive yet still cool, reminds me of something I would see in a real magazine. I also liked the editors note, I liked how you added the links to your twitter account, this made the magazine quite modern and adds the whole friendly yet professional touch.
I would like a brighter centre image, a bigger ROK logo on the top left and corner and for the advert to have a larger terms and conditions font for those with sight issues"

"I liked the 'Inside this week font - it looked profession slick and bold. I liked the ROK logo imprinted on the top left and the issue number on the top right, I felt that this was a good touch for collectors of the magazine. I liked how the page was laid out with large numbers which made things easy to follow.
I felt that the page number (NO.3 - BOTTOM RIGHT HAND CORNER - NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH NORMAL PAGE NUMBERS) was too small. I would make things bigger. I would like a better advert, with images and less writing. I didn't like the image with the guy with the guitar I felt he looked too disinterested and stiff"

" I REALLY LIKED THIS PAGE because of the well placed and spread out layout. I liked how you didn't use too many bold fonts and all fonts used complimented each other and worked well with the great quality images.
I don't really have any real problems with this page but I would say I would like the ROK loo slightly bigger and the issue number and the logo should be swapped around with issue number - left and ROK logo - right"

- Title font (Inside this week)
- Overall layout
- Editors note - social networks were a good a touch
Evaluation conclusions: Things that didn't work well
Things that didn't work well:
- The Subscription advert - just text = boring, pictures of different issues would have been a great touch
- Main image is slightly too dark
- 'D. Smith' looks too uninterested and ruins the feel of the page
- The 'to subscribe'/terms and conditions should be bigger
- ROK - should be at the top right corner and should be larger
- The issue number isn't needed
