Music Magazine (L)

After collecting a few pictures from my photo shoot, i had to create a music magazine. This magazine could be on any genre. i decided to do alturnative/rock. I had to create a front cover, contents and double page spread. I decided to call my magazine 'Eletric Feel' because its simple and to the point, eletric feel is a song and sung by different aritists from different genres showing that my magazine can apply to different types of people. Also for our main story on the front cover and double page spread we had to create a new artist. i decided to create a girlband named 'JukeBox Kidz', the point of their interview was that they have been a band and made it big but had just returned from a year out of the music world.

Front Cover

This is my front cover, i decided to use the colours white,black and red i thought they were simple and stood out. The picture on my front cover is a picture of my band, and also the name of the band and reason for them been on the magazine is the biggest headline on my magazine showing that they go together. i decided to keep the top of the magazine simple and thought i would put all my achor on the bottom right and left. For my achor i decided to use real life music news. As you can i see i used photoshop to create the different effects with my writing to make it look more realistic.

Contents Page

My contents page is alot different to my front cover, i decided to use grey instead of red so that it was more suttle, and didnt copy and have the same look as my front cover. In my contents pages i put in the news from my front cover and also did some research to see what else was happening in the music world to add to my contents. I used some pictures from my photo shoot, i decided to use ones that i thought would show the different techniques that we used when creating the photo shoot and using the redhead lights.

                                                       Double Page Spread

This is my double page spread. i decided to stick to the grey, black and white theme. I decided to create the effect of snapshot pictures so i decided to do this on the right had side, and use pictures of the the people in my band, and then at the bottom use some random photos that i could write comments about. Also to make my magazine seem more real i decided to use pull quotes of what i wrote in my article, i decided to do my article as an imformal interview.
