Evaluation of my final DPS

Good points:

  • The layout of my DPS i think is good. I made sure my text boxes werent to big so that i could allow for an 'interview' image and the larger image of her singing.
  • Iv taken into considerstion the fact its two pages, so iv moved text about to make sure it hasnt got the crease going down the middle of it, and making it hard to read.
  • Iv changed the boxes from dark purple to the lilac so that you could read  the interview text properly, and i also used a bold font to make the question number stand out.
  • I used little image reminder things to make sure that my audience know which picture represents which e.g. to the left and to the right.
  • Aswell as placing my logo in the top left hand corner i also used it in one of my Q+A.
Bad points:

  • It once again has a limited amount of pictures which not because i didnt have enough but i just though less would be more, seems not in this case.
  • I could of used certain relative things to fill in some of the gaps.
  • I could of tried to make the interview picture bigger too.

Evaluation of my final contents page

Good points:

  • I have made sure that all the text in my lilac text boxes is in line e.g. the page numbers down the left side are in line and then the text for that page is in line without any text going underneath the page number.
  • Iv used stroke to put emphasis on all the images, and only used images which relate to the stories I have mentioned.
  • Iv made it look proffesional by putting which page the image will feature on and what story it is linked to e.g. the girl  is Carry Campbell and the dog is the reason she became a gig expert, which is why she's linked to page 19.
  • I have made sure i have embedded my logo within the page so that it fits in with the house style of the other pages and you'd recognise it was the contents to my front cover.
Bad points:

  • The main heading for each of my text boxes could be made to look neater by lining it up with the text following the page numbers, as it looks out of place to the far left.
  • My contents is not dead center, its just off and this is so noticable due to the funky colour of it. I could adjust it so that its in the complete middle.
  • My 'comment from the 'editor' could have been alot more interesting, with maybe a different colour background to the text box, so that it just doesnt blend into the background of the page.
