I was really proud of my completed student magazine, I'm glad that I decided not to include a picture of myself in my editors note, as I feel this would have appeared to pretentious for a down-to-earth, everyday students. I would however have had the word 'FREE' on one of the top hand corners of my front cover, as I don't think it was obvious to the audience whether you had to buy it or not. I didn't include a barcode as some kind of gesture to show it was free, but I think I could have done more to show this.
I would have played around more with the editing on the front page to give it a more 'hipster' edge and maybe had a filter on the photograph of a pattern or shape (i.e. a triangle) if I were to repeat the task. I think my chosen models worked well for my magazine and I would happily make another one.
I think next time I would have incorporated even more of my influence from COMPANY magazine when it came to layout and photographs. I may have tried to copy something similar to this digicover:

This is something to consider next time for my full task when I move on to make my music magazine and maybe look more at this funky style of photography. I really like how the cover lines look like they are on black tape, I think it works well against the photo as it really stands out. This is something I would use for my next piece of work.
