Blog 1 - Introduction. (Music Magazine)

In this project we will be creating a music magazine. We firstly began creating a College magazine to get us comfortable with the software that we needed. It also showed us what would be needed for the music magazine. We will compare two popular music magazines firstly to know what is needed on the magazines. Taking note off the target audience, gender, age etc for the magazine we are later going to create. Research will also be included on other magazines which are big sellers.

As well as this, we will firstly be drawing our front cover, contents page and double spread. (which we will later be designing on Adobe Indesign.) This being the flat plan which will help us for when we design the real thing on Adobe Indesign. Testing fonts, we will know which to use on our final magazine. This Would help us out as we would be seeing which fonts appeal to the target audience and able to compare our fonts from the magazines we analysed in our earlier blog. We shall be learning photo editing. Including; Changes to light or colour. What has been changed and why etc. We shall also be looking whether the text will be formal or informal. Learning about different aspects which are needed on the magazine to appeal to the audience.
