PRODUCTION: Third update
From my audience feedback, I had received quite positive feedback from my focus group which suggests that my front covers have connected with them. There are a few comments about spelling mistakes which I have taken on board such as 'reimaged' instead of 'reimagined'. Additionally with the placement of the barcode and the price as the price needed to be much clearer and obvious for the audience to see and with the barcode - this needed to be much smaller in order to meet the codes and conventions of magazines.
This is the updated versions of the covers.
For the contents pages, most of my audience feedback said that they preferred the HMV promotion compared to the Netflix promotion. So, I dismissed the Netflix promotion and used the HMV promotion on both contents pages which would emphasise the use of convergence through both contents pages. As well I added more pictures to the Elton John contents page due to contents page looking very empty and in order to meet the codes and conventions of entertainment magazines, they must look very cluttered. I also decided that the blue 'SCENE" did not fit with the colour palette of the contents page so, I changed the colour to black to create a more cohesive magazine.

PRODUCTION: update online product masthead
From my audience feedback, my online product masthead didn't convey a strong masthead so, I decided to use the deep blue from the Elton John cover to reinforce my house style and cohesive colour palette between all products. I have added my tagline 'ENHACING YOUR CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE' underneath the masthead to create brand loyalty and brand awareness for the audiences. I have also created a link to Hearst's website for industry context as in the magazine brief, the magazine would be published by Hearst Magazine UK. I still have the same Menu bar and social media bar in order to meet the codes and conventions of magazine websites.

PRODUCTION: Easter egg/ call to action - online website
On my website, I have created an Easter egg and call to action. In the print contents page, I have mentioned the 'CHANCE TO WIN PREMIERE TICKETS' which only the print readers would know about as there would be a quote on the spine of the magazine and the print subscribers would have to guess which film the quote is from. If they know the answer they would click the TICKET icon and it would take them into a secret page where they can submit their answer.
