Planning: Templates


Before beginning construction I made a series of templates that I could show a focus group from my target market to see what they like about the design aspects/colours used. I made sure all of my templates followed a specific colour scheme that I knew my target market would like (based on my survey results). 

The text on the templates does not reflect that of the colour scheme, I just used colours that were easily visible.

Front Covers:
My front covers are fairly basic but I wanted to keep them quite simple at this stage so they would not look cramped and over-whelmed. I know I will probably change aspects from these templates in the construction of my final front cover but I believe these templates are a good base for them. I made sure I included most of the prominent conventions from front covers in my templates. (banners, mastheads etc)









Contents Pages:
Again I made these templates fairly basic whilst still keeping most of the conventions of contents pages.







Double Page Spreads:
For my double page spreads I was a bit more experimental in the challenging/developing of conventions as for one of the templates I had the article on both pages when the typical convention is that the article is on one page whereas the image takes up the other.
