Pitch feedback
Feedback from Mrs Casson
Is it an appropriate choice?
Yes
Is it doable?
Yes, good choice of talent, I can see that you have given it a lot of thought and chosen appropriate themes, like the idea of incorporating social issues, eg drag.
Advice?
Consider how you will incorporate intertextuality ad ensure you have digital convergence between the two products.
I will incorporate intertextuality through the outfits of the cover stars. Woody's outfit will reference nirvana, and Boygenius. Lola's styling will reference other music artists. I will have digital convergence between the products by having social media links and usernames at the bottom of the pages as well as the website page mentioned and have some sort of significant reason to go to the website eg exclusive photos, live music reviews, playlists.

Magazine inspiration
Dazed magazine
I like how the masthead is very bright and bold most of the time and that there is a lot of contrast. The general colour scheme of most of dazed's covers is bright and bold and I would like to use a similar colour scheme in my own magazine.
