flatplane for double page spread

front cover draft 4

here is another draft for my front cover of my magazine here I have added pictures to the section at the bottom of the page within the white boxes.

contents page draft three

here is my contents page i just need to add one more photo under the 30 seconds to mars section to have it compleated.

contents page second draft

here is my second draft of my magazine contents page as you can see there is still a lot more i need to do.

contants page draft 1

here is the start of my contents page. as you can see i have tried to keep colour and i have used the same fonts as on the front page to keep it consistent to the cover photo to the contents to show that the magazine will flow and that i understand why it is good to have consistency through out the magazine. i have added another image of the artist on the contents page not as big as the cover photo but it will be the biggest image on this page to show that the artist is the highlight of this issue of magazine. the black box at the bottom of the page will be a information bar about the magazine. i have chosen to do this because as i have been looking at other magazines such as karreng, in which i have looked at as a similar genre, tend to have more information in a separate box at the bottom of the page.

This is what i have compleated on my front cover this lesson i have changed my masthead so it stands out more, made my cover lines less wordy and also added some poster slots at the bottem along with a bar code and date.

Here i have worked more on my cover lines looking at old magazine covers and applying some ideas to my own. i have changed the red to a brighter red so it stands out more and makes it easier to read, i also changed the font so it did't look to much of the same and made it bigger.

what i have done this lesson to my magazine

here i have added my cover photo which i have edited on photoshop i chose this photo as i believed it fitted with the look of the magazine.

here is the original photo, 

as you can see i have edited Cretan parts of the face and also turned it black and white.
