2. Research
The research helped a lot in the final product as it allowed
me to look into professional magazines that were about
fashion and how the articles were written which gave me a
guide on how to write my article. Another strength is I
focused my research on fashion magazines as that is what I
wanted to do, I looked at VOGUE and ELLE in particular
which helped me get inspiration for how I wanted my
magazine to look
I could have done a bit more research and looked at a wider
range of magazines rather than just one company, I think
this would have allowed me to set out my magazine more
effectively.
3. Planning
• I think my planning went well as I knew what I wanted to
achieve so it was easy to come up with a layout however
I did struggle finding what I should write an article about
so I had to do more research on what I wanted to write
my article about. My planning helped with my product as
it allowed me to effectively create a layout for my
magazine, and it was easy to follow
• Some of the weaknesses of my planning was that I only
came up with one layout and one idea which meant if
this idea didn’t go to plan I didn’t have a backup idea, so
to improve my planning I would have come up with
another plan so I could incorporate different ideas into
my magazine
4. Time Management
• I think I have managed time well as I managed to complete all my work on
the day it needed to be handed in, however I think I would have
benefitted from more time as it would allow me to focus on the
PowerPoints that I had to complete however apart from that I don’t think
more time would have benefitted me
• With more time I would have done more pages to possibly achieve a
higher grade
6. I am happy with the end product of my magazine as I think
everything works well together and all the colours compliment
each other. I have used similar components to magazines such as
Vogue as I took the idea of a one word title across the cover. I
also used a similar font to the vogue cover on mine
7. Aesthetic Qualities
I think my cover looks good and it is a
unique idea with the flowers growing
out, however if I was to improve it I
would possibly change the background
colour to match with the burgundy
colours and the reds within the rest of
the cover. This isn’t my own photo so
changing the colour of the eyes and the
lipstick colour added a uniqueness to
the photo as it was my own spin on it
as well as the flowers
9. My double page spread is minimalistic and
doesn’t look to full of information which I think
will appeal to a young adults audience however
it does include information in which is worth
reading and it would interest the people that are
interested in that topic.
10. • I think the cover looks good and would appeal to an
audience as there isn’t too much going on and all the
colours work well together. I think the uniqueness of
the flowers would entice a newer audience as it is eye
catching
