New genre

From my pictures i have decided that my magazine genre shouldnt be rap and should focus more on hip hop and pop music this is why the artist name has changed but the main story line is still the same. A insight into the artist as well as him talking about his new album. The artists name has changed to fit this genre from tank to Mike James.

Draft front cover 2

This has shown me that the red goes a lot better with the title and the headline shows up a lot more along my artists clothing than the blue
I think that in a different picture another colour could be used but for the title it needs to be powerful and stand out and red is the correct colour to do this

Draft Front cover 1

Image of my artist with the title in red i prefer this as i feel it stands out a lot more and is more noticeable against the green back drop

Image of my artist witht he title in blue i dont prefer this one as i feel it fades more than the red and it isnt standing out as much as the red title is. If the red title stands out more it will be seen by the reader and i want the title to be recognisable.

Original images

 I dont like this shot particularly because in the background there is a wooden fence which fills up most of the picture






This is the same as the picture above but from a different angle. I like this picture more as there is a better back drop to the picture a more open enviroment

 This is also the same but zoomed slightly to focus more on the artist this is my favourite of the bricked shots.







This is my favourite as the back drop is nice and not blocked by fences or chairs however in the top right corner there is a white glow so the picture may need retaking.






From facebook all these images where uploaded and this bottom one was liked the most along with the less zoomed picture of the bricks looking out towards the fields. (printscreen)

Synergy across the pages

For my fonts i would like a bold and powerful style which is easily recognisable. The colour will match what the colour of the artist clothing is or the background in the image/picture. Many of the coverlines will also be this colour but they will vary as having everything one colour would not look great. The cover picture will  different from the contents picture, however in the same place but a different angle. For example there will be a picture of the artist from the side and the contents will have one from the front

Callum, you have missed your planning deadline - you haven't planned for synergy across all 3 pages..
