This is a slide presenting the images on my contents page and explaining why I chose them.

1. Contents page
image choices

2. Main contents page image
I chose this image to be the largest image,
because I thought it represents death
metal very well and its very different from
my front page picture. The look for this
artists is inspired from Brendon Urie from
‘panic! At the disco’, the hat is a signature
accessory for him. The comical facial
expression of the artist is used frequently
in death metal to indicate that they are
not in the right frame of mind. The knife
indicates violence and suppressed anger
which is a frequent theme in death metal.

3. “Editor speaks” image
I chose this image to represent the editor
for my magazine because out of all the
pictures I took I thought that this looked
the most natural and appropriate for the
section. What I noticed from other
magazines is, the editors didn’t always
look like the genre, for example, the
editor for ‘Kerrange!’ didn’t look like they
listened to rock music.

4. Bottom page image
I chose this image to be at the bottom
of my contents page as a poster
because the graveyard relates to a
death metal band called ‘grave’
therefore I am able to advertise it as a
poster. I chose this particular image
because of the gothic headstones and
church, as the windows are from the
gothic architecture era.
Graveyards are often used in death
metal because death and the afterlife
is an extremely prominent theme in
the genre.
