This is my draft of my front cover, it is only a draft as there are many things i would like to change about it. My first concern about the cover is the use of the red font, after looking at the magazine from a distance i think that the red clashes with the other colours used, although the red was supposed to make it stand out and look bold i think that the red sort of drowns out the others colours and takes the attention away from the main image in the centre of the page because of its boldness and brightness.
Something else which i would change would be the circle with "the 50th" issue written in it. I think including this on the front cover would look good, but i dont think the circle looks good on the page the edges are too hard, maybe i will change the colour of the circle to make it look less sharp or i might just get rid of the circle altogether.Also the main cover story about "One Of A Kind" i think needs to say the drummers name to let the buyers know who the interview is with, i think Ryann Docherty is One Of A Kind would sound much better. I think that my masthead is good but i am going to enlarge it slightly because i think it looks a little on the small side on the page.

One thing i am pleased with is the social network section at the bottom of the page, i will deffinatley keep this is my finished design because it looks unique and contemporary. Also the other thing i like is the fact my magazine is international, this shows it is popular in many countries.
