Nathan evaluated visual documents to help with his magazine production project. Some strengths included gaining inspiration from other magazine designs and seeing how images and text were positioned. However, it was also very time consuming. When planning, Nathan's mind map helped organize his ideas but was also time intensive. Based on peer feedback, aspects that worked well included the front cover design and color schemes, but more details on players and larger text size could have improved readability. For future projects, Nathan will add more information in spaces to better engage the audience.

Strengths-
One of the strengths of this method is that I can see what other magazines look like and what I
can use for my own work to make it look as professional as I can make it. It also allows me to see
what has been use previously so I can avoid copy right as when I was doing the masthead this
came in very important as I did not know what was being used and what was copyrighted for
this project. Furthermore I got to see how others have positioned the images and text and even
the size to make it appealing for the audience.
Weaknesses-
This is very time consuming due to this I did not have as much time as I would have like to have
when I was making the assets due to this some of the assets where not detailed enough as I
would want the to be also some of the ideas that I had had never been done before so I didn't
have much inspiration for it and since google images only has some pictures I could get every
single image that I needed to make the magazine.

4. Planning
Strengths
My planning with the mind map helped me a lot as I was able to clearly see
all my ideas and construct them into a mind map. It also helps to plan your
ideas as you can develop them and change your ideas. It also helps you be
more prepared and allows you to imagine what your idea will look like. I can
also avoid copyright.
Weakness
On of the weakness would be that it is very time consuming and that you do
not get a visual image.

5. Time Management
My time management for tis project went very well as I was always on task
and kept up with the time as I have completed my work very successfully with
lots of detail there isn’t much that I could improve on during this product that
involves time management.

7. Similarities-
The color schemes of the the magazines is very similar as they
have utilized a color scheme of dark colors. The layout on the
front page is very similar as the pose and position of the
characters are in the same position.
Differences-
One of the differences of my product compared to this existing
one would be that they have used lees pictures and more
information on the game to give detail to the audience on the
game product

8. Aesthetic Qualities
I believe that my work looks creative and eye catching for the audience due to the
colour scheme and the effect that I have used, if I was too improve on this I would
try to put even more effects into it and add more information on the double page
spread to give as much detail to the audience about the product.

9. Audience Appeal
My product I have made sure that it has appealed to the audience as I have added prizes
and eye catching images and colour schemes to get tem to buy the product. The colour
scheme that I have utilised makes the audience interested in there product as it is
suitable for the content and makes the reader engage with eh magazine as the colours
that I have used in my magazine make it look interactive and intere3sting for the
audience. To help the audience want to buy the product I have used a series of images
and pictures of in game gameplay and best players around the world to make them want
the product even more. As the target audiences age is for 14-30 year olds I made sure the
images that I have used are suitable for this age group I sure of this by making sure that
there was no graphic images used or bad language in the magazine as this could upset
some viewers.
