Strengths:
Overall I think my magazine was a success in terms of how i wanted it to turn out. I thought i did better than i thought i could. I have positive feedback which I am pleased about, people have said they like the layout of the front cover and think the black and white picture works with the rest of the magazine. They also said that it has all the necessary information a magazine front cover should have, which is what they want in a magazine. They liked how i followed conventions and didn't make it too busy on the page., they thought the colours stood out against the black and white. As for the contents page, they liked this a lot more because of having one main image on the page which is totally different from the front page. They also like the way i wrote CONTENTS and some even noticed the little detail of the T behind the shoulder.
The double page spread, some people liked how i didn't finish the article there so it can be carried on to another page. They liked the image because it wasn't the usual posing in front of a camera, it was very natural and they looked confident. Others liked the layout on the page, half text half image, simple and not too busy.
Weaknesses:
On the other hand some people gave me some constructive criticism. They didn't like the black and white image they thought that maybe having a colour image would bring it to life a bit more instead of black and white. As for the contents page, others thought that maybe it should of have more images on it to just give a bit more insight into whats in the magazine and maybe something more to look at. But for others having more information made up for it. As for the double page spread, some people said that this image should have been in colour to add a bit more colour to the page but i think it works well.
Overall i think all comments have been mainly positive and everyone i asked said they would buy this magazine and the price is reasonable. Even if some weren't, it was mainly constructive criticism to think about if i was to do it again.
