To improve my work i could ensure that all of the text is in the same style apart from the masthead which is ment to be unique. I also will ensure all text is clear and readable to ensure the magazine is clear and well presented. I will also look over my style models to ensure the layout and house style is correct for the particular genre of magazine.

Assessing my Coursework

L3

Inclusive gifts

My magazine will include three free posters. I have decided to include this as my research has shown that often in this genre of magazine free gifts are given to attract the audience. The posters will be of band members from the headlining band.

Pull quote

My magazine will include a pull quote which will be (Machine head return to the uk 'its gonna be heavy') I will use this to entice the reader in to reading more of this magazine and buying this magazine. 

Colour Scheme

The colour scheme of this magazine if black, red and white as these colours are associated with the music genre 'Heavy metal' because of the dark theme of this genre. I think by doing this the magazine genre will be easily recognisable and therefore attract the audience.  

Barcode

The barcode for my magazine will include the price and issue number along side the date and web sight. I have chosen to put this information close together as through the use of my research i have found out the majority of magazines use this technique so that the front cover is nicely organised rather than cluttered and messy. 

Headline

The headline for my magazine will be 'Rhinos From Hell' as this is the band name i have chosen to create for my article. I have chosen this name as it sounds like a metal band and stands out as a headline also because through my research i have learnt that most heavy metal headlines are band names. I have chosen to put the headline just bellow the main image as in my research the headline is set out in this format.
