This document discusses layout options for a music magazine. It proposes Layout 1 as the best option, as it clearly displays necessary information like the title, cover lines, date, price and barcode in an organized manner. Layout 1 is also influenced by the layout of "Classic Rock" magazine, which has a similar high-quality style with few cover lines on the front page. Though another layout is influenced by "Elle" magazine, the author feels Layout 1 is better for a rock music magazine as it avoids being too feminine and allows exploring new technical skills.

This is one idea oh how to layout my
magazine, I find this really effective and this
is because everything is clear and easy to
see therefore, this layout should be clear to
the readers but at the same time eye
catchy. As my music magazine will be high
quality similarly to the magazine ‘Classic
Rock’ there’s not going to be much cover
lines on the front page of my magazine to
indicate this. The layout
Includes all the needed
Information and it looks well
organised
Here are the
examples of the
‘Classic Rock’
music
magazine to
indicate the
similarities to
my production

My magazine is influenced by the ‘Elle’
magazine and therefore, to indicate this
even further I decided to do a similar
layout to what ‘Elle’ magazine looks like.
However, I do not want to make the Rock
music magazine too female like therefore
Layout 1 was better as it not only showed
the high quality of the magazine but it
also was more organised. Moreover, I
find this layout very alike my Preliminary
Task therefore, it would be more
appealing to make something else which
will explore my technical skills.
