These are images that I have taken for my double page spread. I took around 14 pictures, all with both Taiena and Abigail, and some individuals pictures. I took a variety of shots, some were long shots and some were medium shots. I also told the models to pose in different positions to make the images look natural and fun.

I was able to take these images, so then I can choose a few to put on either my double page spread or my table of contents.

I was able to take images of both Abigail and Taiena, as they are the main features of my music magazine. I will make sure that they relate to the audience on they why they pose, and the clothes that they wear which can attract readers to the magazine.

Mock Up Double Page Spread

This is a mock up of how my double page spread will look like. From the two analysis I did, I really liked the first analysis of Girls Aloud. The layout of this, I liked, so I did this to my mock up. I haven't planned what I am going write but I will soon.

I was able layout my information and wrote where I wanted everything to be placed. On my double page spread, I will have two images, one which will be on the left third which will be my main image and the other image on the right third, which will be smaller. The article title will be on the left third on top of the image with the leading underneath it. The slug will be placed on the top right third, whereas the body text will be on the left third which will take up most of the white space. I will also insert a pull quote which will be featured. The page number will also be on the bottom right third, so then readers are able to see what page they are on.

Photoshoot Plan

Photoshoot

This is the Photoshot plan which I have made for the double page spread. I will take pictures of the two models, Abigail McIntosh and Taiena Saunders, wearing pink, in front of a pink background.

I will mainly focus on four key images, which is long shot, medium shot or either a long shot or medium shot of both individuals. The photos will be taken inside a building, so then natural lighting will be used and will use flash if needed. Also, the background will be pink, due to the fact that they are wearing the colour pink. The reason why I am taking these photos, is that they will be placed on the left third on my double page spread. After taking my photos, I will be able to see if the images need any editing done to it.

Second Analysis of Double Page Spread

Double Page Spread 2

This is my second analysis of my double page spread. I have decided to chose the same music magazine called NME. I chose this magazine as this is the complete oppostie to the genre in what I am doing. This magazine appealed to me due to the colours and the style of it, as well as the type of genre, as I found it very fascinating to read about Lily Allen and do an analysis on her story.

I decided to chose NME, due to the fact that they are an established music magazine brand which everyone has heard of. NME is generally for the indie market as you are able to see from the images. The target market for this audience is people who are into indie/rock/hip-hop music. The type of language which is used in a specific articel found in the NME magazine, is colloquial and informal, as well as being direct.

In this article, there is a consistent colour scheme of black, white and red which is constanly used throughout the article as well as the magazine. The colour scheme is constistent thoughout as it looks more attarctive and relates to the theme of indie rock. The style of the text on the article is sans serif font, as this is more readable and stands out.

The article has many images and alot of body text. This is then done, to keep the reader occupied. The article is mainly based around the girl group of Girls Aloud and talks about how they became famous; thus is similar to the front cover due to the colour scheme used.

The eye flow starts from the left to the right coming back to the left, as this is how a magazine is generally read. As well as this, there are alot of main conventions included, which I will need to follow in order to create my double page spread.

This is my final draft of my music magazine. I had edited it and changed the magazine a bit to make it look more attractive and easier to read for the readers.

In this final draft, I had made the & sign more smaller and changed the colour to white and deleted the backdrop. As well as this, I moved both the artists name to make it look more professional and interesting. Also, I deleted the blue backdrop from the main cover line, so then it stands out more for the readers.

Music Magazine Advert

Advert

As I had spare time, I was asked to create an advert for my music magazine. I decided to used the brand Nike, as this is a well know brand to consumers. I took several images but chose one which I liked the most. I editted this on Adobe Photoshop and inserted the tick and the slogan for this, as well as having a small print to make it look appealing and eye-catching for the readers.

I first decided to find a model who will model for my advert, in this case I have chosen to use my cousin. As I decided to advertise Nike, I was able to inform my cousin to wear a Nike jacket as well as Nike trainers. I was also able to take as many pitures in different positions and different camera angles. After, taking all the pictures, I had narrowed it down to six images which I liked.

Afterwards, I was able to get feedback from my teacher, and with his help, I was able to choose the key image which I think will suit my advert the most. I decided to chose the full shot of the model, which is a side view. I was then able to open up Adobe Photoshop and pasted the image on a white document and resize it by holidng down the 'shift' button. This was done so then the image does not distort. Furthermore, I duplicated the layer and used the tool 'Magnetic Lasso Tool' to go over the model and delete any unnecessary parts which I don't need.

I then used the 'Clone Tool' to fill in the gaps on the models jeans, as well as using the 'Magnetic Lasso Tool' to remove any white space which was not needed. This was then followed on by going to Google and finding an image of the 'Swoosh' Tick and the 'Just Do It' slogan. I then copied and pasted this on Microsoft Word, as I was able to crop the image and separate the two images. I then pasted this on Adobe Photoshop and clicked the 'tick' button on the top toolbar so then the image doesn't distort. I was able to reszie the image; thus I made sure I held onto the 'shift' button.I then deleted the black background from this image by clikcing on Filter > Adjustments > Inverse.

However, when I pasted the image, there was a black box around the image. I deleted this by using the 'Magnetic Lasso Tool.' and deleted it on the Layer 1 and the Layer 1 copy. I was also able to move the image where I wanted it to be placed.I then got feedback and was told to make sure that I align the image. I also created a 'small print' and rotated it and placed it on the right third to make it look more professional and eye-catching.

Third Draft

In my third draft, I was given feedback from my media teacher. For this thrid draft, I had changed the alignment of two cover lines, editted them, as well as changing the colour of '&' in my main cover line, to make the colour scheme stay the same.

In this draft, I re-arranged the cover lines which were placed on the left third. On the first cover line, I was able to move the word 'Songs' next to the work 'Official' to give the magazine more space. I also removed the word 'Wow' from the second coverline and re-aligned both third and fourth cover line. On the main cover line, I was able to insert a white backdrop so then it is easier to read.
