.After creating my remodelled version of the NME magazine (http://benitaasmedia.blogspot.co.uk/2015/12/remake-and-remodel-task.html) I showed one of my peers my finished product to receive some feedback from it.
I was told that the colour scheme of red, white and black was effective because these are the colours NME usually uses for its magazine and those colours are known to be associated with the NME magazine, so that fact that I used it helps the audience to easily identify the magazine.
Another thing I was told that my photography of the main cover star was effective as it was in a similar style to an NME main cover image and this helped to truly reflect the magazines ethos as the artist had a blank/mysterious facial expression and automatically shows what genre it is.
An improvement I was told was that I could have included a secondary image with the cover lines to help show what artists are included in the issue and also this is normally what professional magazines do.
From receiving this peer assessment I agree with my peer's comments because for example I do think the colours I used for my remade version of the NME magazine helped to show that it was an NME magazine that I'm recreating. So when I come to create my own music magazine front cover I can come back to this post to see all the successful things I have done and also the things I need to improve upon.
