2. The language used for my Front Cover
As you can see here this is my rock magazine front
cover. I really like this front cover, this is because it
actually looks like a rock magazine. The masthead is
‘FIERCE’ I named my magazine this because it fits well
into the rock genre because rock music is associated
with something loud and angry and the word ‘FIERCE’
relates to this. So this means that this is an appropriate
name that fits into the rock genre and will work well for
my music magazine. The cover lines are also good, as
they also relate back to the rock genre of music. For
example on one of my cover line it says ‘FEATURING
THE HARDCORE BANDS’. The word ‘HARDCORE’ is
also associated with rock. I chose this word because it
sounds really strong and realistic to rock. However this
word was previously called ‘BADASS’ on my cover line,
but I changed it to hard-core because I felt that Badass
was associated with punk music. Also I went around
and asked people which word they would prefer and
most of them said Hard-core.

3. The language used for my contents page
This I my contents page, for my rock music
magazine. What I particularly like about it is
the colour scheme. This is because when the
viewers or the readers look at it, then in my
opinion I think that it will receive attention by it,
as it looks intriguing mainly again by the colour
scheme and also the main photograph that I
have taken which lashes out. In my opinion I
think that the wording which is in my contents
is suitable for a rock magazine. This is
because for example under the subheading
‘NEWS’ it says ‘Paramore in trouble’. This is a
good cover line because firstly Paramore are a
band of rock and secondly it says that they are
in trouble. This will interest the reader because
they may want to find out what sort of situation
Paramore could be in. Also under the
subheading ‘REVIEWS’, it has names of
famous rock bands, which my target audience
will be interested to read about.

4. The language used for my double page
spread
This is my double page spread
for my rock magazine. I think
the wording on this is suitable
because firstly the heading on
this page is ‘WILD CHILD’. The
word wild is associated with
someone being really tough and
all over the place. This word fits
into the rock genre, as rock
music is tough. Also I have
created a pull quote in the
middle which says ‘MY FANS
DON’T REALLY KNOW WHO I
AM’. This quote will attract
readers to find out more about
Ruby. The article is all about
Ruby’s life, the words which are
in red makes the article seem
strong as they are all words
related within rock.
