I have learnt how to analyse a magazines from different
 genres, this has been useful because it has informed me
       of what a magazine should consist of and how a
  professional magazine should look like. I have analysed
 these magazines to provide me with possible ideas that I
   can input into the magazine I will be making. Exploring
different genres has now allowed me to think of what genre
   is right for a magazine and what target audience each
genre has. This will help me because I can always go back
     to these analysed magazines when editing my own
                         magazines.
