My final front cover

Here i have gone through each part of my magazine and tried to explain why i have done the things i have and why in that position.
If i were to do this magazine again i would have added more stories onto the left side rather than pictures and also maybe made the front image more interesting with different colours to allow a bit more freedom.
I have tried to follow conventions closly and use a similar layout to magazines that are already successful yet i do not feel my page is as strong as them.
I like how i have picked my colour scheme by taking colours from clothing and what you find on the image.
My magazine, at a glance seems a bit to bottom heavy- everything seems to be crammed in at the bottom or just alot darker. I should think about what i could use at the top of my page more or whether changing the positioning of my main image would be better.
Another thing i feel i have done well is the language used in a colloquial manner to make it easy and interesting to read for my target audience with a successful balance of images to writing.
