final designs

this is my final design cover, i clearly show the main focus of my magazine, the girl band three, i clearly show two of the members on the cover with their band name as the main cover line in bold green with stylistic font to grab the readers eyes, then below i have added a sub-main cover line giving more exposition in the article, so the readers attention is grabbed but they want to read the article more after seeing the small exposition and clearly show the focus of the magazine. the masthead is clearly visible so the reader easily knows what magazine they are reading. then at the bottom of the cover i have placed more cover lines to give more information on what is in the magazine.  the main image is darker in tone so that the writing stands out more clearly. 

this is my magazine contents page, i have clearly shown the brand names of my magazine so the reader familiarises with the name, clearly given the pages of important stories and actually changed the colour of the font to make important pieces of information stand out. then i have added two photos of the band i am discussing as they are the main focus of the magazine.

this is my magazine double page spread, i have once again added a large photo of my band as they are what the article is about, i have also as the the main headline used a familiar phrase so reader would quickly begin to get the main part of the article (that the band have split). i have used very melodramatic writing and lexis to show the magazine is campy and flamboyant.
