Final Product

This is my final magazine cover. Since my draft version I have improved and added certain features which have ensured my magazine conforms to the codes and conventions. Things which have been added are an URL, date and price which I completely missed off my draft. Since my draft I have also added two more cover lines after spending time looking at other covers in greater detail I realised 4 cover lines weren't really enough and by adding these it also filled in unnecessary negative space. 

Since my draft double page spread I have moved the 'Living the dream' and made sure that it is no longer covering up the text from the interview. I have also re-positioned the 'Cobra Lily' so that this isn't covering up text either. Other than that I have kept everything on this and my contents the same as I received positive feedback and didn't feel that any major codes and conventions were missing

Drafting and planning

After recieving feedback on my double page spread I realised that the quote 'Living the dream' was covering up the words on my interview. I am going to move the interview to fit around the quote to fix this error. I am also missing page numbers so I need to add some on when I complete my final version of my double page spread. 

Organisation

This is the original photography of my supporting artist. I am going to have to decide which pictures to use however I am going to use each photo and see which ones prove to be the most effective. 

Organisation

This is a photo of who I am using as my supporting artist. The style and theme of my magazine work together well with the look of the artists I have chosen. 

Organisation and planning

This is Hannah who I am going to be using as a supporting artists and these are some pictures which I may or may not be using on my actual magazine. The very first picture is my personal favourite as I feel like it looks most effective and professional.

Organisation

This is the original photography I am using on my magazine. I have tried to achieve a certain alternative pop style. I wanted to go against the codes and conventions of males being dominant. I have therefore used a female artists as the cover star to create an independent role model for younger girls.
