Peer Review
This week and last week we all presented our portfolio projects to one another and gave each other feedback on what we saw fit to criticize. I was a little upset with my results but I have some work to do with mine to fully fix it. but mainly along my table of contents. I have to retouch it a lot and revise the background and layout of the page. I'm going to include a list below of all my criticism from class mates so i can discus how I plan to fix it.
One issue was my use of color on my fonts where people suggested I should switch to black text and lighten my pages a bit. On the same note about typography people suggested i use text boxes to make text stand out and Appear more prominent so i plan to include them with my matching colors for the magazine. Thankfully, I did now receive any complaints on my font choice because i enjoy my font and also will continue to use it.
My table of contents lacks color as well as more pages and organization. I'm going to use a more chaotic background to match the grunge effect I'm going for and really include the mayhem in the title for people to get a good visual on and really experience the feelings I'm trying to convey onto each page. My previous background was very plain but I do plan on reusing the pattern background I made for it because I received positive commentary on it.
Finally, Everyone suggested I should add more to my cover page and make it more eccentric while also making the backgrounds of each page be more similar to the cover because that's where my most positive comments came from. I'm glad the class enjoyed my editing which makes me more motivated to keep the aesthetic I was planning on and get to have more creative control over it as well.
Overall, The feedback i received was extremely helpful and I feel will tremendously assist me in the revision of my magazine to the best it can possibly be.
