The changes to the settings is not sufficient, you need to add the handler for static files to the urls.py:

# urls.py

from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static

urlpatterns = [
    # …
]

urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

Here we thus add views for the static and the media files (last line).

Note that Django does not serve static/media files on production. On production you typically configure nginx/apache/… to do this.
