Editor's Notes
- I chose to create a child’s jazz music magazine. However, this was a challenge as there aren’t many children’s music magazines around. To do so, I researched into children’s magazines, looking at the layouts, fonts and colour schemes. I then looked at jazz magazines, looking in particular at what kind of photos are on the front covers. I then combined ideas from both these genres. This is developing the typical idea of a child’s magazine by introducing the idea of jazz. I felt that jazz worked well to incorporate in my child’s music magazine as the stereotype of both jazz musicians and children, are that they are both crazy, mad and wacky. I used the typical conventions of a jazz magazine by the model in the pictures posing with their instrument. Secondly, I used the conventions of a child’s magazine by using bright colours, bold fonts, and interesting layouts throughout.
