Double Page Spread Production

I have put together a skiderocket to show how my double page spread came to be what it is now.

Contents Page Production

I have put together this sliderocket to show how my contents page has came to be what it is now.

Front Cover Production

 

This is the program that I started my magazine front cover on - PhotoShop

 

 

Added the title.

 

 

Added first coverline

 

 

Added a tag line to go with the coverline

 

 

I wanted to add something different to the magazine so decided to add a circle at the top to make things  a little different.

 

 

Added the next coverline, I wanted to place it directly underneath to start to begin to work with the boarder of the magaine.

 

 

Added a tagline underneath to show the story without giving too much away.

 

 

Another coverline

 

 

I added a to the circle in the corner, I wanted to add a bit more detail so I added another circle within the circle.

 

 

I changed to the new PhotoShop from now on. I added another coverline.

 

 

Added a coverline

 

 

The shape of the magazine is starting to come together now as the coverlines start to surround the magazine.

 

 

Added last coverline of the magazine.

 

 

Added title to go with image that will go in the background, showing the importance of the story.

 

 

I wrote "exclusive" to make the audience want to read it as a one time offer.

 

 

I added a barcode to the bottom of the page

 

 

I began to play with the colours of the magazine and changed the coverline to grey to match the colour of the circle in the top right corner.

 

 

This is the final copy of my magazine front cover. I decided to change the colour and possition of my title to match the genre and audience better.

Contents Page Images

 

This is the image from my front cover and had the idea that I coud use it on my contents page as well.

 

 

This is a photograph of wellies in mud for the "Fesival Blues" article. I wanted the audience to get a feel like they were thee and the fun experiences that they all must have shared whilst at a festival.

 

 

The picture of the camp fire is for the "Camp Fire Stories" article where celebrities tell fun stories. I wanted to give the article a friendly feel that people can relate to whe around a camp fire.

 

 

The image of dominic Dunn is there as he features in the main article. I wanted to show the audience who he is and this image also highlights the genre of the magazine. 

I used an image I took from a live show of the script, I wanted to show the audience

 

I wanted to use an image from one of their live concets that I took to give the audience a more realistic feel, and showing them that they do play live and will interact with the audience.

Front Cover Images

 

 

This is  a medium shot of Kikki Walker that is an idea for the front cover, I like the positioning of the image however, would like to change the lighting on the image.

 

 

I like this medium shot because it shows a fun side to the artist and not just a serious posed image. This maybe slightly better for the contents page because of the way the picture is taken and not the image the target audience may be expecting from this magazine.

 

 

I really like this medium long shot picture because it have the right colours in the shadowing of the image which will compliment the genre of the magazine.

 

 

I like the colours of this image and the eye contact that the artist will have with the audience but I think it would be better if her face was more central and not on an angle.

 

 

Even though this image is not centered, I still like it because it works with the indie genre of the magazine. It highlights the fashion and the style of the music the artist represents.

 

 

I like this medium long shot and the background that it has. It is not a typical cover that is perfect it works with the style of the artist and the genre of the magazine.

 

 

I like this medium long shot and the background that it has. It is not a typical cover that is perfect it works with the style of the artist and the genre of the magazine. On this image she has her hand over her left shoulder, I thought this would be a good picture because I thought it would suggest music is in her heart.

 

 

Im not a massive fan of this image because there is too much space left at the top of the image.

 

 

This image was the plan of my front cover and I like the colours in it and the central image but I dont think it gets the message across as much as I want to. 

 

 

I thought this would be different and quirky to add a bit of entertainment to the image.

 

 

I wanted to include a CD in the image because she is an artist who will have an article in the magazine about music and I wanted to include this to show the audience that there is a message that she is trying to get across.

 

 

I like this picture because it shows of the background but also highlighting the artists style. there is slightly too much space left at the top of the image but I like the facial expression and innocence of the image.
