My music magazine research from a stereo-typical point of view.

.......

I am now just finishing to take my pictures and starting to edit them. I will soon be able to start making my magazine.

My Flat Plan Of My Issue Of The Music Magazine, RIOT!

You can see that I have chosen a simple layout in order to have a great impact. I have clear story lines, big, clear images and a theme that ties in with every single magazine.

my magazine

as you can see it was pretty plain to begin with and i used green and blue from the target audience research.

as you can now see, I have changed the house style colours in order to create a better vibe aswell as it looking better and more attractive. I have The Boy's whole body showing because i thought that this looked more intising to go with the school magazine. I have also made the MastHead more attractive and vibrant.

I have now added more writing including the contents in my magazine and i have also zoomed in on The Boy to give a greater affect. I added a Girl onto the front cover so that it doesn't attract just one gender and so that it is a mutual magazine.
I have now made a small strapline of 'Holy Trinity Rocks' which is written a white, Bold colour so that it stands out and gives a fun vibe across. I've also added a website to make it look more 'real'.

i started off with a bold font on my contents page. I set it out very nicely and in my opinion it looks quite nice.

I then changed the title 'Contents' into the same font as the rest of the writing in order to make it match my style in the magazine. I have faded some images and include another strapline of, 'You know you've got it right when you go to HOLY TRINITY SCHOOL!' so that the pupils at the school think, "YES!!" in knowing that the magazine is 'bigging' them up.

part 6.

I have now published my audio research and I am happy with how that went.
I will be posting my screen shots from making my magazine on photoshop.
I shall be posting my evaluation audio soon!
