contents final draft

I changed 2 of the photographs on my contents page as i thought they fit better with my magazine, i also changed the font that contents, editors note, regulars and features to fit with the masthead on my front page. I also got rid of my fashion section as i realised it didn't fit in with my music magazine and added album reviews instead. On each picture i wrote a short sentence about what their part is in the magazine.

I changed the picture of the singer as i feel the pose she is doing fits better on the contents page than the other picture.

I used this picture to replace the other one because the other picture i had was for the fashion section which i got rid of so i thought this photo fit perfectly for my music magazine.

Magazine construction

Here i was experimenting with fonts and released the font of the cover stories don't fit with the magazine. it doesn't look professional enough and looks out of place.

Front page final draft

I changed the font of the masthead and the main coverline because i wasn't able to get the masthead bigger with the font i was using and i think this font works well with my magazine. I also had to change the font of my other coverlines so that it looks as though it fits in with the page. I made the font bigger so that you can clearly see the issue number, price and  coverlines. I moved the position of the coverline on the right hand side because i felt it looked better near her head.

contents ( draft 3 )

I thought my contents page looked better and slightly more professional with the white background.

music mag ( draft 2 )

In my audience feedback i was told to add in the issue number, website and date. Also i was told to make all my coverlines the same size so it looks professional.

music mag contents ( draft 2)

At first I did my contents page with a white background and on a double page. I wrote the editors note and features on the left side with one image and features and regulars on the right side with two more images and the initials of my magazine faded behind my text. I realised this didn’t work well so I changed the background colour to black, put the editors note, two pictures and regulars on the left hand side then placed the features, two more pictures and the word contents on the right and added the page number to the bottom of each page I figured it worked better.

From my audience feedback I was told to add page numbers on each of my pictures so it is clear to the audience what page it is on.

 

I decided to use this picture on my contents instead of the other one because the other one didnt fit with the page properly.

 

I added this picture to the contents page to represent concert dates.

Music magazine dps ( draft 2 )

 
From audience feedback I was told to make the title bigger and place it in the middle, make the photograph bigger and add a pull out quote I took this on board and applied it to my magazine.

 

I used this picture because she looks quite relaxed and i wanted that feel as that was the atmosphere when doing the interview.
