First Draft and plans of my music magazine



Plans on how my front cover and contents page would look like

Photoshop draft of my front cover in the making

This is the first unfinished draft of my music magazine. It was very challenging process in collecting the pictures for the magazine. I was faced with the issue of taking pictures that would represent the target audience. I wanted my magazine to look as professional as possible and fit in with other magazine in the R&B music genre. The editing process of the image was time consuming and required a lot of diligence.I tried to use effect on the fonts as away of futher representing the genre of music. Also as a way of attracting my intended audience. I think this is a good start to my magazine which has the potential to be categorized with some of the best R&B magazines out there.
      The name i gave  my magazine fit in to the genre of R&B. It was a decision that i came to after seeing an advert on television about platinum records being released my many artist in the music industry. I thought by choosing platinum as the name for my magazine would fit in with the ideas i had of what i wanted my magazine to look like. I chose to put the image on a white background because it would amplify the image and draw attention to the magazine. The colors i used stands out on the white bachground of the magazine also it matches with the costume the model is wearing.
