Brief 1: Publication 1 - Designing development.

The slight change in poems has meant that the name of the publication has to be changed because the book was named after the poems that has been replaced by Hot and Cold. I feel that the the strongest name to use out of the rest of the poems is PURE IMAGINATION - a good reflection on Bella and her work, but also a good reflection with the childhood connections of using Roald Dahl's poems.

At present I have just been focusing on the layout of the poems with the images, the front cover and initial pages I am still working on.




Overall I feel the book is starting to come together. There are still a few changes I have to go back and change;

- Make sure the Contents page, About page, Bella's Page, Thanks to page, all line up
- Reduce the size of the text font from 12 to 10 - it is far too large and reduce the headers by the same.
- Reduce the text width from 3 to 2 columns wide (now the font is smaller this should be possible)
- Have more of a systematic approach to the placement of each poem
- Fill the spare black double page spread at the end.
- Make the cover more exiting
- Reduce the size of the logo on the back of the book
