Magazine- Structure, Part 3

The magazine has now progressed further as I have managed to put my Masthead on, this not only begins to bring the theme and house style of the magazine together but also is the main title and name of the magazine, I also decided that my house style will be in the Purple font region, in additon I only intend to use several fonts, this gives it real magazine characteristics.

Magazine- Structure, Part 2



In the second phase of my magazine development I decided I would put a Skyline on the top of the front page this was an added extra to make the magazine have a more realistic feel and it also matched the house style of my style model, in additon it also helped in the fact that it covered up space which would have otherwise not been used and perhaps wasted. I also added the Barcode to give it the "Real Magazine" feel.

Magazine- Structure, Part 1

This is what I first started the process of my magazine, after taking my own orginal images I decided I would use one of my images as my main background. This would then tie in so that I could base mu feature article with my front cover, this then shows the "Artist" on the front cover will be the main feature of the magazine also.

Flat plan view

This was my rough draft of what was my flat plan of how my magazine would be layed out, as you can still in comparssion to the actual magazine I have stuck to it pretty well and tried to keep within the guidelines I had set, although more text may be added to the front cover in the near futrure if I decide to. If so I will put an updated flat plan on.

UPDATED FRONT COVER!

This is the latest and much improved persion of my front cover, the main difference is that I have actually took my orginal image and put it in, also I began to tinker with the layout and also with the colour and text pallet. The cover will more than likely be changed before the end as there is still imporvements to be made but at the moment I am reasonably happy with the cover.

Feature Article update

Today I began to write my feature article. I decided I would structure this into different sections, these being one which had a fact file about my "Artist" and also the other section being the main questions asked. I did not use a style model to come up with the structure although the second phase of my structure is usually conventinal in any interview.

Front Cover- Update.

I have began to make up my final front cover. The problems have encounterd with trying to match the background of the image and the colour and title of my magazine name. I have to now try and match the background and the image and so it looks suitable.
