Music Magazine Ideas

Throughout this whole unit, including the preliminary, I have used all my own images which i took myself. I used a site called picnik which helped me with ideas with my photos. I also got ideas from magazines such as VIBE, XXL and Q. These magazines gave me ideas on the layout of my contents and the layout of my front cover. My main article, my two page spread, was created on Publisher and the way the images have been placed were helped by the ideas of magazines I looked at during the unit.

Contents Page Music Magazine

In my contents page I have used one main image of the artist I interviewed for my main article. I have gone with a basic but effective black and white colouring around the whole page. I chose these colours because they blend well together, it is a lot easier to see the text which indicates where to find articles in the magazine.
