Title – when doing research for my magazine I noticed that
all of the title of the magazine was at the top of the front cover, they were
also bright and bold so it could catch the reader’s attention. I have stuck with
the white text and red background to catch the readers eye when they are in the
shops. This colour also fits with my house of style throughout the magazine as
this is also a bright colour for my pop genre.
Mise-en-scene of image – The mise-en-scene for this image
shows a mid-shot of the artist and the piano and to make it go from light in
one corner to dark in the bottom corner. It looks like the artist is really
focused on the music that he is playing and wanted to show that in the picture
as this is to show the expression to the readers. This is making sure that the
audience sees what instrument the artist plays and who the artist is.
Costume and Props – For the costume and props I had to
consider the models wore the same style of clothing to my target audience as
the reader would know straight away that it is a pop magazine. I also had to
consider about the props as there are many instruments to uses for pop music so
I used a variety if instrument and other props to expand and the range of the
pop music instruments. I think it worked out in my magazine as the different
instruments make it look more interesting to the reader.
People – I mostly used younger people for my photos as the
audience that normally buy a pop magazine are the younger generation, but I have
used a older model as he looks like a pop star with his hair style and what he
is wearing. I had to take this all into consideration to make the audience more
attracted to the magazine.
Title font and style – The title is big and also bold that
stands out to the audience, it is also bright which makes it eye catching to
the audience but the name is also easy and simple to read is the audience is just
passing by the magazine when it is on the shelves in the shops. It is also easy
to remember is the audience wants to talk about the magazine. The colour for
the title also goes with the rest of the magazine colour.
Written content- I have made the first letter larger and the
first line is a bit smaller than the rest of the text on the double page. I have
also included a by line at the top of the double page to tell the reader who
took the picture and who wrote the story. The story is also neatly spaced out
so it is easier for the reader to read the text without getting lost in the sroty.
Music
genre and how your magazine suggests it- The music genre for my magazine is pop
and the way that this suggests it has real pop singers in the magazine and that
people would reconise the singer straight away and know that this is a pop
magazine. All of the names are completely different from what can be found in a
rock magazine or other generes as theses names on my new artists would help the
audience know that it is a pop magazine.
Layout
– The title, pictures ans headlines and sub headline are all in the right place
to make it look proffesional. All of the text and images are all seperated to
make it easier for the reader to read the text and look at images without and
difficulty. The text is also bold and bright for the reader to see easier. The contents
page has been split into three collums to also make it easier for the reader to
read, the threes collums also separate the page up and page numbers is so the
reader will be able to find the page quicker and easier. The layout for my DPS is
different as my DPS image has been spread across both pages so the reader know
that both pages are linked to the same story but also the image takes up most
of one side of the page as the picture is the most important as so the reader
can get a clear understanding of the artist.
Contents
page – I have the title contnets in the top left hand corner to let the
audience know that this is the contents page and it is big, bold and bright so
it stands out ot the reader. The colour of the title goes with the colour
scheme with the rest of my magazine to make it more interesting. I have also
put page numbers so the readers know where the story is and it is quick and
easy for the reader to find the story, the page number colours also go with the
colour scheme to make it look mor interesting. I have added pictures on the
contnets page to make it look busy but the collums separate it out and make it
look organised, this shows the readers who some of the artists are before the
reade the story.
