Before, creating my table of contents, I was able to create a mock up so then I am able to know where I would like to put things on the contents page, which includes images, text etc...

I have decided to put the image of the front cover on the top left hand corner, as this is a main convention in which music magazines use. Next to it, I decided to put the editorial letter which is also a main convention. I will also insert the magazine name 'Flava' on the contents page so then readers are able to see what the magazine is. I will also insert a textbox which says 'Contents Page' so then readers are able to see what the page is. I have also decided to put two images, which will relate to the contents page and the whole music magazine. The contents page will therefore, consist of the cover line which were mention on the front cover, as well as inserting a few more. I will also create an offer, will reader will be satisified with, as well as being a main convention so then they are able to alert readers to the music magazine.

Double Page Spread

Double Page Spread

The double page spread will consist of the new girl group called 'Pretty In Pink.' I have decided to use the theme of pink on the double page spread, so then it relates to the girl group. The double page spread is an interview about them and consists of different questions in which both Abigail and Taiena answers them. Here I was able to change the colour and font to make it stand out more and look attractive and appealing for the readers.

I first started to insert the main image of Taiena and Abigail.I decided to insert this on the left third and took up the whole side of this. The cover line 'Getting Down To Business' was placed on top of the image, with the leading text underneath it. The slug is placed on the top of the right third as this is a main convention in which music magazine consists of. As you are able to see, I was able to follow my mock up, which made it easier to create my double page spread. The body text, is the 'Pretty In Pink' article and is written in my own words which relates to the new girl group as well as the overall theme of music.

I was able to make the main image more bigger by holding down on the 'shift' button, so then the image doesnt distort. For the article title, i changed the font and size and added a white backdrop behind so then it can stand out. I was able to change the font of the body text, so then it stands out and attractive, as well as inserting a pull quote which was used in the body text. The pull quote was added, so then the double page spread looks more professional and realistic. I then added an image of the girl group and editted it before I inserted it, by using the tool 'Magnetic Lasso Tool' to take away the pink background. I also added a page number which was placed on the bottom right third so then readers are able to see what page they are on. Furthermore, the leading text is placed underneath the article title and was able to change the font and colour if needed.

After doing all this, I made sure that I aligned everything, so then it is easier to read. Moreover, due to the body text being in the font as 'Broadway' I needed to change the font to a much clearer font so then readers are able to read it and is clearer. I also changed the font of the article title to Hand of Sean, so then it will match my front cover.

I then got feedback from my teacher and was told to consider changing the girl group to Pretty In Pink rather than Flawless. I also had many spelling errors which I changed throughout my interview. Moreover, I added an outro, to end the interview on a positive level so then readers are able to read more about the girl group of they wanted to. I also added a white backdrop on the page number, so then it will stand out to the readers.

Front Cover Final

Final Front Cover

For my final front cover, I was able to get feedback from my media teacher. On this front cover, I was able to change the colour of the masthead so then it will stand out more and look more attarctive. As well as this, I changed the cover lines of some of them.

On this draft, I was able to change the colour of my masthead to the colour white, so then it looks more attaractive and looks more readable. I also editted the cover lines, by deleting the words 'Who is..' so then it the cover line sounds more catchy and efficient. As well as that, I change dthe & sign and made it smaller, as well as changing the colour to white and making sure that there was no backdrop behind it.

Thus, as I mentioned before, I deleted the cover line words 'Who Is' I decided to put it back in, as I wanted this to be a rhetorical questions in which readers will think about if purchasing the music magazine.

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.

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.
