I have decided to change my DPS as I feel the one I had before did not work very well and actually did challenged conventions too much decided to stick with columns, like a typical magazine would, and also to brighten up the background, as on my previous one I had a boring and dull colour for my background and felt that it didn't go very well with the colours of my front cover and contents page and just feel that this one does, as it it a bright colour and looks more appealing, as my target audience want to see something that looks good, as well as something that looks appealing to them.
The conventions that I stuck to on this final design, were the columns; that have made my DPS look so much more professional and more like an actual magazine.
I decided to stick with the red font, as it, again made it more eye catching and appealing, as it really stands out with that particular colour background. I kept the idea of the text going around the artist, which I feel has a unique effect and makes the dps much more captivating and unique and make the reader want to read the article.
I kept the Pictures going down the side, as I feel it makes the DPS more appealing to my particular target audience and without this, my magazine would look really dull, with only one image on the DPS. The quotation on this page is in a salmon colour, which I feel covers the empty space behind it. I decided on a salmon colour because it goes really well with the brown wall she is leaning on.
I completely changed the font and the font size of the heading and sub heading, because I feel that a DPS should be introduced with a big, bold title standing out from the page, making it look professional and more of a successful convention that you would see in a typical magazine.
I kept the picture of this particular model, because it is a unique image and I feel just makes the DPS look like more of a Rap magazine but it also gives off a Pop genre vibe, linking into the magazine I wanted to make quite nicely.
