Front cover Final


This is my final front cover, i took a picture of one of my friends whilst playing the guitar and placed it into the background of the magazine cover to make it look professional.
In addition, i took ideas and inspiration from NME and kerrang music magazine to create my final product.

Contents page Final



This is my final contents page, i took ideas from other popular music magazines and used similar techniques to create my final product. I have included the name of the magazine into the contents page and a list of information which is included within the magazine.
To improve this i would edit the picture more to look like it was more suitable for its surroundings, and added more text.

Double page spread Final


This is my final double page spread. The main picture is the lead guitar and singer of the band The conspiracy. On the right hand side of the page there is information about how the band started, members of the band and gigs and live tours. I faded the picture into the background so you can still read the writing even though the guitar is behind it all. In addition, the design is simple but effective because it has a plain black background but uses colourful writing to make it stand out to the auidence.

Contents


This is my first mock up of contents page. I looked at popular magazines such as NME and kerrang, and looked at what pictures are used. I then found images of these bands and added them into my contents page. I have also included the title of the magazine and a numbered list on the left hand side.

Moving picture and subtitle


I moved the picture down and made it smaller. Also i moved the subtitle underneath the main heading. I did this to make it more clear to the auidence which is the subtitle and which is the title. However, i think the previous design worked better than this one, so i will go back to that design.
