Front Cover: I feel that the front cover has been successful for that of a rock magazine. The font I chose for the main adverts is eye-catching and hints at the rebellious nature of rockstars. With the background image I feel that it fits in with the attitude, and that the models look like a real band just starting out on the road to fame. When I compare it to my preliminary task I feel that it is much better, and not as basic as I developed my skills and tried out new things on Photoshop.
Contents Page: This is the one out of my three creations that I am not as happy with, as I wanted it to look professional but did not have enough time to go back and start again. When I look at it I feel that there is something missing, but I don't really know what! However I think that it still fits in with the front cover and double page spread, but only to a certain extent. Looking back at the mock up I have changed it, and I think that the final design is better, especially since I used Microsoft Publisher instead of Photoshop to make the changes I felt were needed.
Double Page Spread: I am pleased with the finished creation as I think that it looks good, and that the image on the left hand page makes the band look like real stars. I enjoyed writing the article as I want to be a writer when I am older, so I think that it sounds good and goes well with the idea of a 'new band in town.'
When all three of these are put together I do not feel that the contents page goes that well. It is frustrating to know that one of my three creations doesn't look brilliant with the other two, and had I had more time I would definitely of gone back and started again. However, I think that the double page spread and front cover still fit together, and overall I am pleased with the magazine sections I have made.
