magazines final task



2) Write an evaluation of your work: have you succeeded in your brief to create a new, original edition of an existing magazine?

The magazine covers is quite similar to men's health magazine cover because in the magazine they highlight the model in the middle which is done in my cover and the font also quite similar to a men's health magazine cover as the cover lines and heading are big like they show in the magazine.


3) Put your cover alongside a couple of genuine covers of your chosen magazine. How professional is your work alongside genuine examples?

It does look professional because the way the model is positioned in the magazine is very similar to the way the men's health magazine show their model but  the cover lines of the magazine can make it look less professional.

 4) What is the strongest aspect of your work?

The picture of the model

5) What is the weakest aspect of your Photoshop magazine cover? 

The weakest point will be that there is a gap in the middle of the magazine

6) What would you do differently if you completed this assignment again?

i will make sure that i plan out my cover lines from before and plan the sketch properly before doing anything as planning will help me execute my plan properly.

The three different covers are very much similar with each other as they are all using the same font when they are using the title and even for the cover lines are very highlighted.The model is main feature in the magazine and is always the focus which is kept in the middle and the cover lines surround him.furthermore they make sure that the model they show is showing some type of muscle and is positioned to show its muscle.
