The document summarizes the front cover design of a magazine that combines elements from NME and Kerrang! magazine covers. It uses three singers on the cover like the style models, and combines the layouts and text styles of the two magazines. The cover is more similar to NME, using its color coordination and house style theme. It features the band in a medium shot to show their full outfits, centered like Haley Williams on NME to attract more attention. The masthead was manipulated from Kerrang! to make the magazine unique with a new style by combining elements from both magazines.

1. With my front cover I wanted to produce something like the style models that I had chosen which is a mix between a NME cover and a Kerrang! cover.
Both cover use three singers on the cover. However the titles and the layout of the text in general is set out differently, so by combining the two
together I feel like I made the perfect magazine for a indie/rock audience.

2. My front cover is more similar to the NME cover compared to the Kerrang! Cover as I have used quite a few of the same traits as the
magazine. I decided to use the house style theme to my magazine and use colour co-ordination just like my style model does. The style
and the layout of the writing is similar to the style model and I used Hannah (centre) in the centre of the magazine just like Haley
Williams is in NME because women attract more sex appeal (Naomi Wolf’s Theory). I decided to use a medium shot of my band instead
of a medium close up as I wanted the audience to see bands whole outfits as people often look at what their favourite band members
are wearing.

3. I decided to manipulate the masthead of the Kerrang! Magazine as I thought that combining the NME
house style and the Kerrang! Masthead would make the magazine unique and it would create a new
kind of style to a magazine. Like the style model I used three people and placed them quite close
together to show that they are close as a band.
