Having received plenty of audience feed back I found that in order to gain maximum marks, and produce a high quality music magazine, I had to make some changes, some subtle, and some drastic.
For one, my music magazine had too much text, on the front page, in the contents page, and the double page spread. I began filtering through everything I believed wasn't needed, and even then I found that I was still left with too much.
Further work on this ensured my magazine did not seem to busy and was overall a lot more successful.
Adding to that, in my contents page, I had too much pictures of my one female model and main artist. I removed three of the smaller unnecessary ones, enlarging the main image and focal point, and inserted an alternative model (male) in the bottom corner to add some variety to it all. Again I also reduced the amount of text in my magazine making it appear generally better, and not as crowded.
Finally, I decided to change my main image on my front page, I went with another similar image from the same photo shoot, however, I found that the new image had better lighting, and looked more 'proffessional' giving the magazine a high degree of finish.
