Research And Planning: Extra Photos That Need Taking

Here is a list of extra photos that need taking for my magazine:

• Concert Tickets
• Nail Varnish
• Handbag/Purse
• Jewellery 

I am going to use these photos on my contents page.

Research And Planning: Double Page Spread Changes

I have made some small changes to my double page spread. I have added a small box to the corner of the 'poster' as after doing some research I found that most pop magazines include the name of the artist on the corner of the page/picture.

Research And Planning: Progress Of Cover Page

I have made the model on the front cover bigger so that it fills the page. Also I have added more text to the bubble to make the front cover looks as if there is more going on.

Research And Planning: Progress Of Contents Page

I have added a box behind the contents page so that it matches my front cover. I have also changed the font as it was not the same as the others.

Research And Planning: Progress Of Contents Page

This is the progress of my contents page. As you can see I have changed the stories so that they are catagorised them into features, gossip, fashion and competitions.

Research And Planning: Progress Of Front Cover

This is the progress I have made with my music magazine. I have added an extra model and extra cover lines to make it look busier and more like a pop magazine. I have also changed to colours of the banner as I felt that there was too much blue on the page. I feel that the colour change also matches my genre better. I have added a stroke around the second model to make her stand out more on the page. After doing some research I found that most pop magazines have a box or a stroke around the photo.

Research And Planning: Font Used In Magazine

I have downloaded and used this font throughout my magazine. I prefer this font to my previous one as it fits the genre better. I downloaded it from dafont.com.

Research And Planning: Changes To Contents Page Layout

1

2

I have decided to change the layout of my contents page so that it is similar to contents page 1 as I feel it matches my theme better. Contents page 2's layout would not be suitable for my magazine.

Research And Planning: New Photos For Front Cover

These are some extra photos I have taken for my front cover.

Research And Planning: Extra Photos For Front Cover

These are my extra photos for my cover page that I used for my make-up section.

Research And Planning: Progress Of Magazine Cover

This is the current progress of my cover. I have added text to the bubble and added a make-up section to make the cover look busier and more like a pop magazine.

Research And Planning: Model Changes On Double Page Spread

I have decided to use 1 model on my double page spread instead of 2 as I feel that this is more appropriate to the genre as you wouldn't normally find 2 people in a girl band. The model I have chosen to feature is more suited to my magazine and the genre. I am going to use the other model on the contents page as a separate artist. I have also changed the fonts to match my new front cover and contents page.
