Preliminary Exercise Leaner Response

 WWW: Your cover photo is effective with the stare into the distance working as a means to encourage others to seek out their own improvements. The language used on the front cover is encouraging and pushes the same message conveyed by the imagery.

Next Steps: It’s unclear from the image which of your two larger pieces of text is your masthead and which is your headline, please clarify this through repositioning or enlarging the right text. Your cover lines read more like individual pieces of advice; remember, the purpose of your cover lines is to promote other potential stories that could be inside this magazine. Consider your colour choices for the writing. Unfortunately, some of the white writing of the cover lines is in front of the white clouds and this makes it harder to read. Perhaps consider a translucent box behind the text, an outline, or a drop-shadow.

3 Things I learnt:

I learnt that the cover has a clear idea and embraces the vivid imagery of productivity.
