2. Final front cover
This is the final front cover. In order
to display the genre conventions, I
used a particular font for the
masthead that I thought portrayed
the rawness of the music. Also, for
the main image I dressed the star in
a tracksuit as this is a particularly
used piece of clothing in this
industry. Additionally, the star is
wearing a ring and two earrings,
these pieces of jewellery present
the star’s wealth. I felt that this was
the right colour scheme. In order to
make it clear to the reader what the
genre was, I included the names of
several grime and urban UK rap
artists.
3. Final DPS
This is the final DPS. I
decided to put the initials
of the artists name at the
top of the page and display
it as a title. This makes it
clear the article below is
about the him. I also
added an image of him to
fill up one half of the page
and a quote so that the
readers know how he
thinks. The main article is
an interview with the artist
himself. I thought this
would be a good exclusive
feature for the magazine,
as he is a well known artist
and he is becoming even
more successful at a very
quick pace. Also, I thought
that that an interview with
the artist and to hear from
him first hand would be
what readers would want
to see.
