When looking at inspiration for my own magazine, I picked out Dorset Life. This magazine stood out to me as I like the idea of creating a magazine on a large area. Dorset life is also a very well put together magazine and looks professional in every issue. The magazine's website is also well put together, is easy to use and has a very welcoming feel, something in which I will look to emulate when creating my hyperlinked web pages. The magazine has been running for years and has been successful from the beginning so I believe that it is a good choice for inspiration.
The front covers of Dorset Life are the main reason in which I have chosen this magazine as inspiration. I love the way in which the page is laid out on every issue, with the image being the subject of the page and any text is placed around the edges. I believe that this is something I could use when making my own magazine as it works very well here. The front covers of Dorset Magazine are also extremely colourful in every issue, making them stand out on the shelves again other competition. The texts and fonts seen in the magazine also fit very well. The texts are bold enough and not too over the top, but they're also decorative and may appeal to a wider audience. Again, this is something in which I will refer back to when planning the font of my magazine as it works very well here.
