Summative Feedback
- Pagination and content flows well making the reader want to read on
Pleased with this feedback as I printed out a lot of test layout so that I created a well considered, flowing publication. I also explained how I forgot to press 'print blank pages' and all my pages got mixed up was actually a positive event as it made me rethink my page layouts to be more expressive and engaging.
- The colours over the double page spreads compliment each other making it easy on the eye.
- Cover looks professional
I was worried the cover was too minimal, hence my research into shelf presence, however the feedback was positive as the minimal cover intrigues the audience to have a look inside it. Using grey board was successful because the rough texture and style is unconventional.
- I explained my problem when trimming down the pages and luckily people said it wasn't immediately visible however I know for a fact it isn't professional. It was suggested that I needed to trim the sides of the cover so that there wasn't such a big gap between the page and end of the cover, however I like how the pages sit on the grey board as it frames the images of Bristol.
Further Feedback:
My crit group confirmed that I have used my research into Bristol to inform the production of my publication as I have combined Bristol's environmental awareness with stock choices. I explained how my research into Tschichold and Irma Boom helped to inform the cover of my publication as Boom contradict Tschichold's traditional principles in order to benefit her publication which demonstrated how I have analysed and critiqued my research which they were impressed by.
