Evaluation

Overall, I think the Audio-Visual aspect of the coursework could have gone a lot better. I was happy with the narrative and what I got filmed but I struggled when it didn't reach the required time limit.

I also feel a lot better about the main photos used for the magazine as they had direct eye contact with he audience whereas the ones I previously used didn't.

I added a mixture of sans-serif and serif fonts and bold colours to try to make the cover more exciting and vibrant. I also changed the photo to one of her looking directly at the camera to try to make it more appealing to an audience.
