Feedback and Revisions
The feedback that I received on my magazine was very helpful and should allow my magazine to be improved greatly. The most common responses were that the pictures on the article pages were dark and could be brightened up. The second response that was said in an abundance was to add branding and page numbers that are easier to see. Also, I need to match my page numbers with my flat plan which I forgot to do. Last but not least, I need to get rid of the border on my cover page. To brighten up the pictures, I will have to edit them and play with the picture settings. I will also add some branding to the bottom of the pages and have the page number on the outside most part of the page in a bigger font.

Use of Conventions
My magazine uses and challenges the conventions of the genre it is about I many ways. In my magazine, I used a tactic that most of the magazines that I researched had. This is putting a subheading under the title that explains the purpose of your magazine. In addition, I also used a convention most fishing magazines use which is having a massive fish on the cover of the magazine. This is used to catch the audiences eye and make them want to pick up your magazine and read it even more. Also, this magazine represents a popular social group. This social group is fishermen that are trying to learn more about fishing. This is shown by the abundance of tips and tricks and also the pictures. The pictures are shown to show the audience who they are trying to catch once they get more experience with fishing.
