The uppermost image is Tom's layout draft. The one at the bottom is mine. Collectively, we have decided that Tom's is the better layout. We felt that it was more in keeping with the LWL stylistic layout. Mine was taken from a plainer review, so the layout construct doesn't reflect as aptly the unique LWL design layout. Also Tom's has the inclusion of the doodle on it, which is an important aspect of LWL. Also, he has deconstructed the review into sections; background, film, evaluation and the 3 point system. He has kept the scoring system in a separate box from the rest of the review, an important but easily overlooked part of a typical LWL review. We have decided on a single page review; our film is only 4 minutes or so, so making a double page review is both impractical and nonsensical. As such, I may have to drop the word count slightly if we want the layout to fit into the boxes. That is why the above images show only a single side. Now we have decided on a layout for our review and I have some feedback on my draft review, I can edit the review accordingly, and begin the artistic work concerning the page review itself. I will post up a basic construct of the review soon, and I will have the completed article done by the deadline on Thursday. Now the film is fully edited and on the blog, and the film poster is finalised, this is the only task we have left to do.
