Do you think the colour of the title 'Derange' ought to be brighter (whiter)?
Three people said that the text didn't need to be brighter however two individuals said yes, with one saying that the title ought to be slightly bolder, made so by adding an outline to make it stand out.
Does the way the picture is edited look effective?
Four people believed the picture did look effective although one individual (the youngest person at 15 years old) said that I should make the image more 'grainy'/ foggy so as to make the picture look as if the characters really are in an apocalyptic world.
Does it help to convey the sci-fi genre?
All individuals, bar one, agreed that the article helped to convey the sci-fi genre.
Is it necessary to have page numbers?
Four individuals said it was necessary to include page numbers in order to make it obvious to the reader that this is a magazine article (since after all, it is a convention of magazine articles to include this). Only one person said that they weren't.
Do the fonts need to be changed?
Four people believed the fonts didn't need changing although one person did say that they could possibly be changed to make the article look more interesting.
Does the body text need enlarging?
Two people thought the body text does need enlarging whereas the other three didn't. When doing my research on magazine conventions I found that magazines typically use a body text font with either size 8 or size 12. Already, the body text in my article is size 24 so in theory, rather than enlarging it, I need to reduce the size.
Do you like it?
All of the people I asked did like it.
Is it clear that the poster represents a stereotypically heterosexual couple?
Many, if not all of the people I asked said that it wasn't so obvious that they were a couple but they all got the reading that the two characters were working together to fight whatever antagonism is faced in the film.
Any additional improvements?
Changing the colours of the fonts to make the article more interesting was one of the changes offered. Furthermore, one person identified a few spelling mistakes which I need to amend. In addition to this, another individual said that I could apply a black gradient onto the bottom of the image which would essentially help to make the text stand out.
