Evaluation of the Finished Magazine - Questions

My media product uses similar conventions to real media products. The front cover has one main image that covers the whole page of three people making eye contact. The masthead is placed at the top of the page so it can be clearly seen. However, looking at the mastheads on other magazines, mine is in a more unusual font compared to plain fonts used on magazines like Mojo. I think this would make my magazine stand out as it makes the masthead eye catching and interesting. The strapline for my magazine is like many other magazines, it is placed at the top of the page so it can be seen and grab peoples attention. It is written in capitals and starts with the word 'EXCLUSIVE' to make people want to read it as they won't be able to find the information anywhere other than Shockwave magazine.
My magazine is a rock/indie magazine that features articles on well known successful artists as well as up and coming singers and bands. The magazine was intended mainly for male readers, but having written my double page spread, that is about a female musician, I think it is appealing to both men and women.
