commets on a mock up

This is a questionnaire I came up with once I had made this mock up. I thought I would get some feed back to see if any of my ideas would be useful for my final product.


Here are the responses that I got to the questions:


What do you think to the layout of the magazine? (Is it easy to read?)

• looks pretty easy to read and I like the stripey background at the top


• its not to crowded


• good because it looks like a music magazine because of the music related items in the picture


• yes it is east to read


• I think that it is very affective as the stories don't hinder the main picture


• The plain background of the image makes the text easy to read
• its simple and I tend to prefer more busy layouts but I like this one because it's easy to read & doesn't have too much going on
  

What do you think of the colour scheme that I have used?

• looks good. I like how it matches the colours of the cover photo


• really good because its bright but subtle


• the colour scheme works very well as you have mixed together simple vibrant colours which makes the magazine interesting but not over powering
• i think a few colours is a good idea as long as there's not too many

Is there anything else that you would like to add? (Good/bad points)

• The white lines look a bit strange around the titles, but other than that it is really good


• more information is needed about what is inside


• good points: each person in picture is adding a element of music and fashion & it isn't too cluttered


• bad points: no issue number or date. That's it.
• I like the very top line claiming it's the UK's best selling mag as sometimes a reputation can make you buy a magazine
