pictures for my music magazine

This picture i am using for my front cover because its big and it has a good stand out main figure in the middle of the frame, also when its enlarged to fit the whole page it doesn't become fuzzy.  





For my double page spread i chose this photo because it was a good large picture which had a good long shot of three guitarists and it fit the double page when i made it larger.

Second double page spread


The difference between this and the first attempt is that i have included a picture into the text and put text wrap in it so the text is around the picture.

Music magazine proposal

The music magazine is going to be aimed at an indie/punk rock music fanatics from aged 16-25, it will have new upcoming artists, whats good at the moment and what used to be the big thing in older generations. It will also include posters of big bands, bands with new albums coming out and of rock chicks like Hayley Williams from Paramore and solo artist Avril laviegne. 

My idea for the Mast Head is to be short and sweet but bold and to be filled with colours that catch attention quickly, the name for my magazine is RHM this stands for Rew Hawkins Music it's short and catches attention quickly and gets them to wonder what it stands for. The font i use will be plain and simple so there's no emphasis taken away from the music and the main themes of the magazine and front cover. There will be a tagline each week which will change and it will be from a quote from an interview from inside the magazine off that issue.

There will be a publish every fortnight it wont be at a high price, the images on the front will be different each issue and depending on whats in the issue, also the Mast Head will always stay the same except for special editions, there will be around 20-23 pages and will be A4 and the colours will mostly stay the same being yellow and black/brown to keep an identity to the magazines name.
