Final Magazine
Audience Feedback
Audience Feedback (printed PDF ver.)
Daily Diary 24/05
Today I was able to start my evaluation. I also got more audience feedback from the art students from college and received the physical copies of my magazine
Because I had a lot of time to yesterday, I was able to quickly finish the rest of the improvements I had to make on my FMP page. Yesterday was very much a mess, but I feel a lot better about my project now. Seeing it printed is really nice and it came out well, I was still worried yesterday that it'd come out poorly somehow
I spent most of the day working on my evaluation as well but I'm still on the research portion of it, this will take a lot longer than I thought. I'm also already on 1650 words with it, this will be a lot longer than my previous ones for sure. I'm kind of eager to see how long the full evaluation will be, I just have a lot to say about the project I suppose!

Today I continued with my evaluation. I'll go over this website one more time tonight to check everything in it is fine, especially my original FMP page as the text on it likes to break and overlap
I feel like I focused on recapping a bit too much in my evaluation, but I was reassured that the more detail the better so I don't feel too bad about it. I also know it won't detract from my grade or anything like that either. Writing this evaluation has taken surprisingly much longer than I thought it would, I hoped I would be done with it by today so I'd only need to come tomorrow at 1pm but I don't mind coming at the regular time tomorrow to finish it. I also got some feedback from Stephanie today and Dawn about the actual PDF I sent to the printers, I may also be able to send the final PDF to the other magazine designers tonight as well as they respond quite quickly
On Daily Diary 09/05 at the end of my pre-production page, I said I downloaded a bunch of new fonts that I didn't put in my original font justification just for more inspiration. I actually ended up using these new fonts heavily over the other ones that are in the font justification file, I'm pretty sure the only one I used from the font justification document is the Pink Chicken font, purely because I thought they'd better appeal to my target audience (15-20 year olds, mainly teenagers). I'll admit that I also liked the graffiti style of them better personally

Today is my last day of this year. I've finished my evaluation now and did the final check of my website
I don't have much else to say because I've already done my evaluation and that's long enough so.. When I get home I'm going to sleep probably. Working on this has been an interesting experience. I'm glad it's over now and the final product is nice, I thought it'd never get published at one point which is fun to think about. I'll most likely be spending the break thinking about my next possible FMP project
