1. Task 5: My idea’s of my magazine
By Rina Bansal
2. Front cover ideas:
•Here I like the idea of using a top header •Here I like the layout and the font style of
on the page. I may use this technique the headlines. I may base the front cover
within my magazine, however maybe list of my music magazine on this particular
names of music artists of the genre of the cover as it looks professional and not too
magazine (indie rock/p and RnB) I also like crowded for my liking. I will have a
the idea of the main persona staring similar layout and similar font style on
directly at the camera and a front view the front cover of my music magazine,
angle of the face; I will also do this on the however the image would not be in a
front cover of my music magazine. similar style.
3. Contents page ideas:
Image 1 Image 2 Image 3
•Overall, I like different things about each of these images of contents pages. However the
main image that I plan to base my contents page on is image 2.
•In my own music magazine, I plan to set the layout a similar way to the layout in image 2.
However, in the margin, I plan to involve different sections which include information about
music bands, singers and other artists as well as the no.1 music charts. I will also plan to
use a similar colour scheme to image 2, which is a scheme of white, blue, black. But I will
also add a grey colour to the pallet as it would then be consistent throughout the magazine.
•By carrying out these ideas, I hope it will result in a professional and subtle contents page
which matches with the front cover.
4. Double-page spread ideas:
Image 1 Image 2
•Here are the 2 main images that I plan to base my double-page spread on in my music magazine.
However I plan to base the page on image 1 more than image 2.
•I plan to use a similar layout and style in image 1 as I think it goes with the theme of the whole
magazine. I like the idea of the stripes that cut across both pages and separate the pictures from
the images, my idea is to use this style but also at the top of the page, and a maximum of 3
stripes only so then it does not take too much space. I also like the style of the images. My idea is
to use the same technique, however have a maximum of 4 images and have them slightly slanted
and place the larger image in a different place. I then plan to set the short article of the page
under the 3 stripes, in the middle of the page, and spread across both pages.
•I think by doing this, it will look professional and will go well with the theme of the magazine, as
this page will also have a colour scheme of grey, white and blue.
