Finished project

Today is the last day for altering my media coursework. I have been altering my front cover, contents page and double page spread for a couple of weeks now and i am finally happy with the colours, format and pictures i have chosen. I need to do a few alterations on the contents page to make the writing stand out more, and i need to change some of the writing on my front cover. One thing i have not included in draft is a big heading on my front cover of the artists i am using in my double page spread. Today i will include this and change some of the positions of the titles.

Above are all my mood boards which i put together before i decided on the layout and look of my magazine. All i did was cut out pictures from various magazines which i liked the look of and i thought would go well with the electrical/pop look i was trying to go for. 

I have now uploaded my pictures onto the computers. My main feature artical is based upon a new, upcoming band, LAYDZ. There are only two female members in my band and their genre of music is mixed, from Electro, pop and rock.

The Photoshoot

For the photoshoot my friend and sister modelled for me. I dressed them in three different outfits. The first outfit was very bright, with neon colours which i think go with the electro genre.

The second outfits were big tee-shirts. One of the girls wore a black one and the other a white. And the third outfits were two dresses which were very similar but very bold. One of them had black and white strips with pink roses on and the second was blue with green and blue flowers patterend on. I liked these dresses as they were similar and show the fun side.

Good Sophie, Keep blogging on your progress and upload your rough sketches for your pages and your mood board, props and costume lists and location lists too and any photographs you have.

I have now changed who my target audience will be. At first I was going to specify my magazine to just a female audience. But I now see that thats too specific and to get a wider audience need to include males.
So my magazine will have a variety of Band/Artsits who take particular attention to Electro/pop, for example; Ladyhawke and Lady GaGa.
