Feature Article Evaluation

Like my front cover, I have compared my feature article with a KERRANG! feature article. The young target audience of KERRANG! is similar to the audience of my magazine meaning they both feature a question and answer styled article. This meant that they were good articles to compare.

Contents Page Evaluation

Here I have compared my contents page with Metal Hammer's contents page to again show how I have used conventions of real magazine contents pages in my own magazine. Metal Hammer has a slightly older and different target audience to my magazine, but it is very similar.

As said before on my front cover comparison, I had chosen to change the colour scheme of my house style. On the contents page, there is less black however the light blue links really well with the blue lights in the photo of 'The Hallowed'.

Front Cover Evaluation

Above I have compared my front cover with a KERRANG! front cover, to show how I have used conventions of magazine front covers that are used in real life products. KERRANG! has a similar aesthetic and target audience to my magazine, which is why I chose to compare them. 

Overall I am quite happy with how my front cover turned out. I chose to change the colour scheme I was going to originally use from red to this light blue, as I felt that the red colour did not suit an image with a mostly black background. I then made sure to maintain this new colour scheme throughout my house style.
