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.

Add Subtitle

I think the subtitle adds the missing piece towards this front cover. So i am now going to look at re-arranging it and seeing which works best for my front cover.

mock up 2

This is my second mock up. This design is simple but is good for catching the attention of the audience. I think this faded image works well and plays a good role of making this magazine looking good. However, i think this magazine is missing a subtitle which i will look at putting on and updating.

mock-up 1

This is the first mock up i have created i think that i will use a white background for future mock ups because it looks to dark and hard to understand.

Layouts

This is a layout i have created in fireworks. i use the box tool to draw boxes on a plain document and that designed and layed out where i thought would be a good place for each essential item needed on a front cover.

This first example is a popular layout where there is a lot going on. This is to enage the auidence. Magainzes such as Kerrang and NME use this sort of layout.
