Throughout the course I have frequently looked to my friends and peers for advice and feedback on my work to help me change and develop my trailer and designs to be constantly improved.
An easy way to do this was to use blogger to post my work and ask people to comment their thoughts and advice on each of my drafts. This enabled me to display my progress chronologically and use the feedback when producing the next draft.
Here is a powerpoint showing some examples of comments which I used to improve my work
The most frequent comments were
CUTS NEED TO BE SHARPER AND SHORTER TO CREATE MORE TENSION
Here is an example of my draft of the magazine cover and how I used a comment to improve it
As you can see I have used the advice in the comment to develop my work, such as
- Barcode needs to be smaller - It is now smaller
- Date at the top - Now at the top filling the space gaps above masthead
- Use contrasting colours - I have used yellow which stands out to the audience and emphasises certain parts of the page
HOW I USED PEER FEEDBACK
Comments from rsilvestermedia
I have learned that audience feedback can be extremely useful, especially if you have been working on the same piece of work for a long time, it is important to get an outsider's view rather than your own biased views. A fresh opinion can pick out errors or improvements that I may not notice in my own work, so asking others to review my designs gave valuable feedback which helped me to improve the quality and standard of my work.
