2. The front cover image
I am going to use my cousin Adam who is very
passionate about music. The scene is going to be set
using photoshop as the software to enable me to make
the background how I want to make it so it is more Rock
instead of using a white background like NME.
The clothes he will be wearing a simple plain black t-shirt
with dark navy blue jeans and converse.
Direct address, Adam on his feet, posing with one drum
stick in his mouth biting down showing teeth to give that
thrilling look for the magazine. (other drum stick in the
other hand with both hands by his hips)

5. Text and photographs used for
double page spread
For my double page spread I am going to use my
girlfriend who is in a band called Overload and is
the lead singer, so I am using just her for the main
image and with that she is going to be posing
standing up with a snapback as the prop/object
to give off the mysterious look.
The background is going to be a brick wall to
make it more interesting to the public when the
open the magazine and go to read the double
page spread. I have chosen to do my double
page spread in an interview/Q&A because that
way people can then find out things they never
knew about the interviewee but the audience
can also get some advice for if they’re planning to
be a singer or to do with helping them with
something related to singing or being up on stage.
