Music Magazine

My final product of my Music magazine!

cover

 My aim was to make it look as professional as possible because I think it looks more polished and neater, also, it was part of the task to make it look professional so it will suit the conventions of a music magazine. From the planning of my other pages I noticed that I made adjustments to fit typical music magazine requirements, also, my planning was not that detailed so I missed things I should have added and I required.

Well form the planning of my masthead and the layout and content of my front cover has changed. I have kept the same name, however, I have changed the font to a bolder and larger font styling so it will be eye-catching and would be visible if the magazine was displayed on a shelve. Likewise, on my front cover I have added more cover lines that expected because my image is not a close up so I was able to fit more. I also added a puff as an extra convention for a music magazine and a short sell line as more of a catchphrase and it is branding for the magazine.

Content page

i have changed my content page layout because when i did an additional search of conventions of a content page i noticed mine would look less professional that i originally planned. so my new design is more structured. i have constructed my features by think of events and artist that are current but relatable to my magazine, so the ones i have chosen i think are suitable for my target audiences.

also, what i have included that was not in my plan was a sales at the top which includes the date and issue number, i still have used 4 content images so the views will have a variety to look at visually and suggest there is more than one feature in the music magazine

Plan of DPS questions

In this blog entry, I will talking about the article and the cover star artists interview questions. Firstly the name of the group will be Eden. This is because the cover stars group has conations that can link with genre of the music magazine. Eden is a group whom has made her debut and has gained popularity due there internet success and are new artists signed to a major record label, making them stand out because they already have an established fan base. They have also gained attention due to they do not all dress in the same clothing which is interesting and unique this makes them, relatable to a wider audience. Here are some example interview questions which could be used for the magazine!

• What are your musical influences?
• How did you form as a group?
• Do you think YouTube was a good starting platform?
•  What do you’re new song about?
• What is special about that song?
• What would you be interested in exploring different genres of music?
• How is Jay-z as a manger?
