what im doing now

  

I have finished my college magazine,I am now starting the main task,my own music magazine which contains front cover,contents and a 2 page spread about the musician/band I am interviewing.

examples of music magazines

Vibe uses the musician as there main  focus on the front cover also there masthead  is behind the model

Kerrang main photo also has also little photos showing there is more in the magazine apart from the artist drawing the audience in and there masthead is in front of the main picture

 

 

Billboard use there artists as the main attraction as you know that the magazine is going to be about them but they use their mast head in different places either in front of the model or behind

my magazine front cover and contents page

 for my front cover I have used only one photo for my main image and background I used this because it was a portrait photo and it was easier to fit in the screen

 

I called the magazine 'life in the day of college' then the students/costumer knows its about them or college

 

I also added two other photos on the page, I also have a few Anchorage text, I did this to show whats is in the magazine,

I also included a bar code ad price.

 

 

 

I wanted the contents page to be simple so it wouldn't be over packed with images so I have a photo of two students studying I also have the contents heading and what the magazine contains and page numbers
