Flat plans

Double page

This is a draft for my double page that i drew up on a piece of paper. I followed conventions on this by making sure i put the logo in the left hand side which is where throughout my blog i have placed it. From my research below this is what i concluded on how the layout of my double page spread page would look.

 

 

Contents

For my contents page i also made a flat plan, showing how i would set it out and which order everything would go in. From the examples of other well known music magazines i came up with this for my final idea. I planned it on paper so i could keep referring it to mine whilst making it on Photoshop.

 

Front cover

This is the plan for my front cover i made before i started to make it. I put in the barcode, price and other things i knew would be essential for the music magazine.

 

 

 

After taking my photos i looked online at different music magazines for ideas on the layout of my final piece.  

 

These are a few of my photos i took for the music magazine. I decided not to have instruments in these because as you can see above none of the well known music magazine have instruments. I took these with a canon dslr.  

Name ideas for my magazine-

• MUSE
• UPDATES
• BEATS
• IMIX
• RHYTHM 
• IU- INDUSTRY UPDATES
• MIU- MUSIC INDUSTRY UPDATES 

I decided to chose MIU (Music Industry updates) as the name for my music magazine. Once i had made my final decision i then tested out some different fonts and colours that i thought would look good.   

This is my Questionnaire analysis which helped me decide the following-

• To aim my magazine at both male and female
• 17-21 Target audience 
• For the magazine to be sold every two weeks
• POP/INDIE genre of music
• Red, Black and White to be the main colours on my magazine
• A free poster would increase sales
• To charge approximately £1-£2
