Problems encountered when creating the magazine front cover


When creating our front cover we have experienced some problems with the authenticity of the photographs, and we have decided that we are going to still use the layout of the magazine front cover that we have created but change the picture.
To ensure that this is the right thing to do, we asked our target audience what they thought.
We showed them the magazine front cover that had the first photograph on, however then showed them the other magazine front cover with the new picture on it. We then presented them with the two covers together.
Out of the 12 people we asked only 3 people liked the first cover, and the remaining 9 said they felt the new magazine front cover really stood out, and highlighted the genre of the film. We also found that these people thought the cover looked more proffessional and authentic.
Emily and myself also thought it fitted best with the teaser trailer, poster and theme of 'total film' the magazine we are using. When the new picture has been fitted properly and the text fits well around the image I will then post the final poster image.
