25 Word Pitch Feedback

After receiving feedback from each of my classmates I worked through the comments, and generalised them as much as I could, here are the results that were concluded:

Other existing similar magazines
Amelia, I.D

Possible problems
Might be difficult to make it look handmade, May be too narrow aiming at a female audience, Time consuming, Small age range and I may find it difficult to give the magazine an arty look.

Good Points
Good title, Well thought out, Stylish Interesting and Contemporary, Strong ideas, Unique, Good choice of colours, Fashion/art will give a lot of idea's to go off,

Advice
Research similar magazines for the fashion/art angle, Take lots of photos, Get all the images I want/need, Test the scanning fabric idea and Be sure to make music the obvious theme.

My conclusion to the feedback is that all the points made are very fair especially the fact that making the magazine look handmade will be difficult, the fact that it will be time consuming and that my age range is quite restricted. To overcome these potential problems I will

1. Experiment with a lot of different elements that I believe will help my magazine look handmade, e.g. scanning materials, buttons, ribbons, etc. And if I do this early on and I do find problems within these idea's, I will have plenty of time to find a solution.

2. Plan my time really well, set myself deadlines and spend only the essential amount of time on things, as I can always come back to them later on.

3. I will create a target audience profile, looking at a singular person that fits my target, find out things about them that will allow me a better chance at making the magazine as successful as possible.

I am very glad that people can see my ideas becoming a success and are generally quite interested in the unusual pitch I have come up with.
