Blog # 4.16 - Area of Interaction

The choices that I have made that will appeal to the audience is the celebrities, their clothing, and the colors and style of the font. Since my target audience is women, having celebrities in the cover will appeal to them because women tend to be interested in celebrities. The clothing of the celebrities is appealing as well because their dresses are gold and the fonts are white,black,red, and yellow. Besides that, the font styles and color are appealing as well because it blends in with the background color and the celebrities that are on the cover. A choice that I could of made to make the magazine cover more appealing is placing the articles somewhere else. I could of possibly put each article next to one of the three celebrities. For the most part, I am satisfied with the result of my magazine cover, even though there is areas that can be improved.

Besides that, another change that I made, was the placement of the other articles. I wanted them to look as organized as possible, so I separated the articles, while in my initial design the articles were much closer. Overall, my initial design is very similar to my final design, I made only a few changes to the final design
