5. When I started making my covers I had a particular style in mind … e.g. the style of kerrang.. The busy hectic look of the front, I thought this may have put the message straight across that this is a music magazine, also I decided to stick with conventions, but when I started I felt compelled to use the bands real logos but with closer research I noticed that a lot of today's popular magazines present the logo in there own font. These are the other two magazines I made trying to use this style, it would usually take me around 45 minutes to make one of these.
6. When I started the magazine style I just went for the unconventional idea of one picture and using that keeping the logo over the natural background I later figured out how to put the people in the picture in front of the magazine logo and still keep the natural back ground of the image this added immense effect and made my work seem even more authentic After getting the style of my magazine right I then added the little things that make the magazine that extra bit real looking such as the also inside heading and little titles across the bottom
