This document contains final drafts of the front cover, contents page, and a double page spread from a student's music magazine project. For the front cover, the student chose an image that reflects the magazine's style and genres of pop music. The contents page uses consistent fonts and color scheme to clearly display article titles. The double page spread features an interview article with musician Lara Whiteley that discusses her career path and upcoming album, while also mentioning her fashion tastes to engage readers. The image on the right page makes eye contact with the article text to guide reader attention.

1. Final Drafts of all Three
Publications….

2. Front Cover…
This is a print screen of the final draft of my
music magazine cover. The reason I chose
this image is because it reflects the style of
my magazine and the genres which is pop
and the background colour matches the
colour scheme of my magazine as well.
Also, her eye contact is specifically looking
up which shows she is addressing upwards.
Another reason why I picked this image is
because it has a lot of space for the
masthead, coverlines, Strapline, Priceline
and barcode which can help my cover look
not too crowded as everything can be
spaced out.
Finally, the image of Saba singing is simple
but can grab the audiences attention and
again can link back to the genre of music I
will be talking about. This shows the second
draft of my music magazine front cover with
the changes made and I have taken on board
all the feedback from my first draft as well.

3. Contents Page…
This is my final draft for my music
magazine’s contents page. The continuity
of text/font and the colour theme goes
well. All the text can be very clearly read.
All the articles are very relevant to the
magazine and context. Also, I had to make
sure that all the text is completely lined up
so that it looks professional and looks
clearer for the reader to read the writing.
Finally, I think this is a good final draft
because I have used the same font for the
mast head which was “eight track” so it
looks like it is from the same magazine and
looks and goes with the genre of my music
magazine as the singers and articles
featured go with the genre hip/hop and
pop.

4. Double Page Spread…

5. This is my final draft of my DPS, with the music artist I have chosen Lara Whiteley. I have
embedded her name into the masthead title which can make the article personal and also
quite different and unique to other articles in music magazines.
The article I have written talks mainly about her road to success and what school she
attended, what her fashion tastes are and when her new album will be out. Also, the
language is quite formal and addresses the reader well. This then shows the article
doesn’t go on about just her past but varied with how she feels about her job and by
knowing what her fashion tastes are this can entice readers if there are different topics in
the article as it is more interesting and more intriguing to read.
The image used on the right shows eye contact towards the article making the eye flow a
backward S shape which is commonly used in music magazines.
