Start of my front cover

This is one version on my front cover. I enhanced the colours of the image to make it more eye catching so that people would buy my magazine. i am left to add on the barcode, issue number and date. i am also going to repostition my images as they are very over crowed in the bottom left corner.

Costume Ideas

My Costume Ideas
Costume Ideas
Little Mix
My magazine is fairly colourful and bright so if the costumes in my photos were colourful the colours may clash with each other, so i have decided that to stop this from happening i will have my band/models in black clothing with colourful belts and shoes etc.  I focused on the style of "Little Mix" as this is who my bad would be based on.

Location

My Location

My photos shoot is gonna take place at Portishead Youth Club. I chose this place as its fairly large so i will be able to spread my models out around the space. Another reason is because there is alot of lighting that can be used in the room as well as the natural light from the windows.

We Love Pop New Front Cover

After looking at 'we love pop' Christmas special magazine i decide there were a few thing that i saw that would like to import into my magazine front cover.
One of the things was the idea of having the photo collage of new artists and celebrities in the bottom right hand corner. I also liked the idea of having the main title in the left hand corner on a slight slant. So i decided to use this in my magazine. As i was looking at this we love pop magazine i drew a rough sketch of what my new design would be like.....



               My New Front Cover
My New front cover relates more to "We Love Pop" And it also makes the magazine look more realistic. We love Pop layout is very scattered around and looks as though its full of gossip and information. By doing this it makes my magazine stand out more to teenagers that was the latest celebrity stories.

Main Image: My main image will be a photo of Big Mix with the Newest member of the band in front of The original members.Grouped together (Tight) Ellie in front of Emma, Frankie and Rosie (Full Body Shot)

Front Cover Evaluation

My colour scheme is purple and bright blue, I chose this as I thought its bright enough to attract the eye by not only the girls but boys too as is has a boy related colour involve (Blue)
My Stories on the front cover will include New pictures released, a top 20 in the charts article, a win a backstage pass to any concerts competition and an interview   with Abi, the newest member of ‘Big mix’.

Font Examples

I looked at different fonts on Dafont.com; I liked the look of these 5 fonts as they are very clear to read and stand out quite well against the different colour backgrounds.
