Evaluation question one
1.
2. On my magazine I have drawn inspiration from the
cover of Spin magazine. Placing a white title on a
coloured background in the top left corner is something
Spin do to great effect, being the reason I have chosen
this for my title location and design. The location of my
title will make it easier for potential customers to see
when the magazine itself is on shelves, making it the
most effective location.
I have chosen, like Spin magazine, to have
my two cover models stand on the left and
right side of the cover. Placing it on the side
is a look that works extremely well for
Spin, so I hoped to echo it with my image.
Further drawing inspiration from Spin, I have
chosen to have my cover lines on the side of the
cover placed atop one of my main images. A line
to divide the different cover lines and their
subheadings is also something that works to help
the reader distinguish between the different
cover lines. The choice to do this on my
magazine is something that will make my cover
more legible and more appealing to the reader.
I have chosen to have a collection of the bands in
my magazine in the top right corner of the
magazine. This yet again is a convention of Spin
magazine, making it of great inspiration for my
media product. Doing this helps give the
audience and idea of the sort of bands that my
magazine covers and – more importantly – what
genre of music my magazine covers. This makes
the inclusion of this on my cover vital, as new
readers will easily be informed of what my
magazine is about at a quick glance.
3. I have looked at Q’s red and white colour
scheme and echoed it on my front cover
given how well it works on their
magazine. It also benefits my magazine
given the main band having the same
name as an iconic Japanese city, and
the colour scheme being the same
colour as the Japanese flag.
I have also drawn
inspiration from Q by having
a similar shot to them .The
use of a close up including
their shoulders doesn’t
occupy a large amount of
the front cover, but covers
enough to make it apparent
that it is the cover image.
4. Much like Spin, I have
chosen to have my list of
features located on the
left side of the page
vertically. This works to
great effect in Spin as
they are extremely simple
to read and highlight the
main features of the
magazine effectively.
Spin have chosen to have
their main image for the
contents page take up the
majority of the page on
the right. I have echoed
this by having my models
on the right side of the
page, allowing for them to
be visible and separate
from the list of features.
Both my magazine and Spin have
something in the bottom left hand
corner separate from the main image
and list of features. Though Spin have
credits to the photographer, I have
instead chosen to have an image for
my cover feature, emphasising the
importance of it and making it stand
out to the reader as it could have been
the persuasive feature in them buying
the magazine.
5. Mojo have used a pull quote on
their contents page to try and
attract people to the magazine
and give them an idea of what
the magazine article itself
contains, as well as proving to
the reader that Ringo Starr
himself has had an interview
with the magazine. This is
something I have chosen to
echo as it engages and interests
the reader, making them desire
to read on.
Mojo have chosen to emphasise
the cover story by separating it
from the rest of the features. This
shows the importance of the cover
story as it could be the pivotal
reason for the reader choosing to
purchase the magazine, making it
the most important feature of the
whole magazine. This motivated
me to have the cover story stand
out from the rest of the features on
the contents page/
6. Mojo’s double page
spread uses a consistent
colour scheme of black
and white. In turn, I have
taken inspiration from
this and I have my own
colour scheme for my
magazine, which suits
the overall design of
it, involving both the
cover and the contents
page
The very first letter of the
article is much bigger
than any other piece of
text on the page. This is
a common convention of
music magazines, and a
convention that I have
adopted for my own
magazine as it gives the
reader a clear indicator
of where the article
starts.
