Possible Front Cover Images

These are the pictures that i have taken for my front cover of my music magazine using the model Leah Haywood. They were taken in the green room at college against a white wall.

Text Examples

Here are some examples of different types of fonts that have given me ideas and inspiration for my pop music magazine. I got them all from a website called dafont.com that contains hundreds of different types of fonts in various shapes and sizes. I have chosen the ones above because they caught my eye and stood out to me as i was looking for examples. I like all of the texts that i have chosen because they are unique and bold so that they are really noticeable to the audience and memorable. 

Makeup Ideas

These images above are from various different websites that i chose from Google images. I researched makeup thoughts to inspire me and give me ideas for the models i will use throughout my music magazine. Smoky eyes or bright colored eye liners stand out and follow the codes and conventions of a pop music magazines because they are prominent to the audience and noticeable. Red lipstick has different ideologies behind it but i think for a pop  music magazine it is appropriate and features in the majority of the existing magazines that i have studied for influence.

Costume Ideas

The pictures of the clothes that are featured above are all taken from the Topshop online website. They are clothes that appeal to me which is relevant because i fit the reader profile perfectly. The clothes i have chosen are not too inappropriate or revealing, which most of the clothes featured on artists in existing pop music magazines currently are. Clothes featured in pop music magazines aren't dull and boring because they need to stand out and be noticed. The clothes i have chosen above are all unique, different and mostly bright colored.

Liiar Analysis Double Page Spread Q Music Magazine

The main focus on this double page spread is to introduce the main story about Noel Gallagher. You know that it’s him straight away as you can relate the two images too each other before you read anything on the page to confirm who the artist is. He’s positioned in a very similar way to the image on the front cover. His name isn't actually stated in the title on the page that relates to a quote from Noel Gallagher or a fragment of speech that he would use. There isn't a lot of text on the double page spread it’s mainly taken up by the image, background and title. It’s only an introduction into a large text about Noel Gallagher following onto the next few pages in the magazine. The text on the double page spread gives you an insight into the story that it’s about to tell you about Noel Gallagher and his continuous fight with work to be successful and his true love for music that he will never give up on it. The title says ‘job’s a good un’ it’s spelt in slang like this reflecting Noel Gallagher’s accent and the dialect he delivers. This is to show off his personality through image and text rather than meeting him in person. The writing is in big bold print relating to his personality being bold and him standing out from the crowd.

Q magazine is published by Bauer media group. It is originally from Germany but sells in 15 different countries worldwide including the UK. The company was founded in 1875 and has been privately owned and run by the Bauer family for generations. It is know that 38 million magazines are sold per week of Q magazine’s weekly edition. From this information I can tell that Q magazine is hugely liked by the public and is a favorite music magazine worldwide.

The ideology of this double page spread is to entice the reader to read more into the story about Noel Gallagher. This is brought to the reader’s attention due to the iconic image of Noel Gallagher himself and the catchy heading. The article will appeal to most Q magazine readers and specifically people that are a big fan of Noel Gallagher himself or the band Oasis he split from in 2009. The image has been taken of him from a straight angle he’s looking right into the camera almost as if he’s looking at you as a reader. There are no real implicit values all explicit directly telling us what the article is all about and who it’s about because of the image of Noel Gallagher. The small amount of writing gives a lot away about the article but not too much it leaves you wanting to read on more into the article about his life since 2009 when Oasis split up. Because Noel Gallagher has kept his career quiet since Oasis I think this edition of Q magazine will be valuable to his biggest fans as one of the biggest things he’s done for a long time relating to the public and being in the public eye. He talks about his fans on this page saying ‘Nobody’s got  the formula, it’s the people who decide’ this relates hugely to his fans and sort of praising them in a way saying thank you for getting him where he is today because it’s certainly not easy.

Q magazine is known to be suitable for an older audience and mainly bought by older generations I think that younger people more recently will have started to buy Q magazine more. This is partly because I know people that read Q magazine that are my age and I have bought the magazine myself in the past. The magazine is becoming more suited to the younger generation as well as the old. Because the magazine is expensive social class is important when buying Q magazine people with little money are not going to buy the magazine as it is not a necessity. People in a higher social class will be more likely to buy the magazine as a luxury as they will be able to afford it much more generously. This also stops the magazine been main stream and separates it from the average music magazine out there on the market.

The image of Noel Gallagher on the double page spread brings so much emotion to the article before you even begin to read it. The way he is stood and the position he is stood in insinuates a lot of attitude. He is wearing the same clothes as on the contents page image and on the front cover image. This is so that readers recognize him without reading the article encouraging them to stop and read about him more. The colors he is wearing are browns, blacks and blues. Theses dark colors link in with the deep emotion he shows. You can see his wedding ring clearly on this image this could be to introduce the readers to his life just by looking at the imagine and to tell us that he is married before you read on more into the story and discover this for yourself. The fact that there is a huge article on him in Q magazine in the first place shows that he is a well-loved iconic music artist that people do look up to and want to know more about his life. If this wasn't the case he wouldn't be on the main pages of this music magazine like the front cover, the contents page and a whole other 9 pages about him including more writing and images.  In all of these images he is featured on his own and not with anybody else this relates to the story inside the magazine about him splitting from the rest of the band Oasis and carrying on as a solo artist and not giving up on the dream he lived and loved for so many years previously.

LIIAR Analysis Contents Page Q Music Magazine

There isn't a main image used in the contents page of this magazine there are several images relating to the stories throughout the rest of the magazine. The entire images used show connotations of different emotions. Most of the emotions shown are relating to the story behind the image and the genre of the music artist. For example Ellie Goulding is shown to be innocent and pure using light colors in the background of her picture and emphasizing her bright blonde hair. But Adam Ant is shown with an ugly looking bull dog showing his tattoos and wearing all black. There is also a picture of the Q magazine edition itself advertising subscription to the magazine weekly working out cheaper than purchasing the magazine every week. The design of the contents page is simple and easy to understand with images and insights into stories at the top of the double page contents page and the cover story and regulars at the bottom with the Q review which is shown every week running down the right hand side. The ratio of text and image I think is perfect with not too many images making the page look too busy and complicated and not too much text making it boring to read. All of the text is made view-able and it is clear that it is a contents page as it has ‘ Contents’ written at the top with the monthly edition underneath it and the name of the magazine. It also has clear page numbers after each story clearly directed you to the pages you need to be on to read more. The color scheme on the page is the same as the front cover. Black’s whites and reds are mainly used for the page to be recognizable and related to Q magazine. The fonts used are different for each section so the cover story is in a different font to the regulars or the Q review section. This makes the pages less boring and different but effective. The most important information is in the brightest colors to catch the reader’s attention straight away.

From this information I can tell that Q magazine is hugely liked by the public and is a favorite music magazine worldwide.

The cover story is clearly stated on the contents page so I think the main focus of the magazine relating to the main image on the front of the magazine is noticeable straight away and stands out. The image used on the front cover is a similar image to that used on the contents page of Noel Gallagher next to the cover story review. I think the contents page is just as expressive and exaggerated as the front cover because of the set out and the stories included. . The magazine would not appeal to everybody though as some people may not like music magazines at all and not read them or may be interested in a different music genre. The magazine is £3.99 which is expensive for a music magazine this also makes it less mainstream. Lots of different artists are included in the contents pages on pictures including the main story line with Noel Gallagher. This makes the rest of the magazine seem even more exciting and encourages you to read more. I think the fact that more than one image has been used on the contents page makes it interesting than just one picture of one artist. The contents page also sets trends for the rest of the magazine surrounding music artists and stories. The pictures and stories are all really different therefore there is no repetition in the music magazine with each story been unique and recent to the music industry. All of the conventions that define social norms are stated on the contents page much more than on the front cover with that little bit more of information.

Q magazine is known to be suitable for an older audience and mainly bought by older generations I think that younger people more recently will have started to buy Q magazine more. This is partly because I know people that read Q magazine that are my age and I have bought the magazine myself in the past.

Because the magazine is expensive social class is important when buying Q magazine people with little money are not going to buy the magazine as it is not a necessity. People in a higher social; class will be more likely to buy the magazine as a luxury as they will be able to afford it much more generously. This also stops the magazine been mainstream and separates it from the average music magazine out there on the market.

The double page contents page of this magazine has lots of representations including persuasive attitudes to promote the magazine and celebrities. The story lines contain a range of different representations including different music genres not just the usual indie/rock. All of the images are bold and eye catching drawing you in to the story. All of the images also show expression and in some cases vulnerability. Most of the images are wide shots showing full body images of an individual or group of people. Others are close ups and extreme close ups showing more of the emotion rather than the scenery and background of the other shots. Unlike the image on the front cover of Noel Gallagher the images on the contents page don’t give us as much insight into the artist and the story behind the pictures which is what the contents page is there for to encourage you to read on. The images all do the artists justice there are not bad images or shots that have been taken and are all understandable relating to the story beside them. The artists are all posing and seen to be related to the genre of music they specify in.

LIIAR Analysis Front Cover Q Music Magazine

The main image used in this front cover is a wide shot and has many connotations behind it. The image of Noel Gallagher could be seen as seductive to women encouraging them to buy it. The design on the magazine masthead is very signature because it’s the same on every Q magazine in red and black, in the same font, the same font size and in the same position on the page. This means people can recognize the magazine straight away wherever it is. The design and color scheme has also been based around the main image. The text colors used are red, black and white with a little bit of gold. The red and white have been used to compliment the masthead and the black has been used to compliment the picture of Noel wearing all black. The gold has been used for a change to draw your attention to the bubble. It says ‘album goldmine’ which is another reason why the color gold has been used relating to the title. The headline of the magazine is the largest text compared to the other headlines suggesting it is the most important and always relating to the main image used on the front cover. The main image has to be attractive to make people want to buy the magazine and to interest them usually the celebrity used is well known and popular. Other conventional elements used in the magazine are: plugs, a sell line, cover lines and a tag line. The main story line ‘Mission accomplished Noel how he did it his way’ is very powerful and draws your attention straight away to it. The sell line ‘The world’s greatest music magazine’ persuades the buyer to purchase the magazine and has a lot of influence on their decision. The cover lines are placed in areas on the front cover of the magazine that are noticeable and spacious in alignment with each other.

There are many values and beliefs shown through the front cover of this magazine the main one relating to the image. It tells the reader that the magazine is big and important. As the picture has been taken on a tilt looking up at Noel Gallagher this could represent power. The image of a male could possible attract more females to buy the music magazine as it is widely known for been more of a male music magazine than female. This image could change the readers view on this matter. The image could inspire the idea of how they want the magazine to appear. Noel Gallagher could be a sex symbol to females this is a huge attraction to music magazines. The image on the front always determines whether the reader will buy it or not so it has to be interesting. The music magazine could be seen as just a mainstream magazine for the simple reason that it is the world’s most popular music magazine and because of its audience of both sexes and different age groups. The magazine would not appeal to everybody though as some people may not like music magazines at all and not read them or may be interested in a different music genre. The magazine is £3.99 which is expensive for a music magazine this also makes it less mainstream. The main image sets a trend for the rest of the music magazine and the main story line gives an insight into the content of the magazine. All of the stories are largely music related and always recent to the month the magazine is published. Noel Gallagher is a confident character trying to win over the buyers of this magazine with his charm shown in the image on the front cover. The terminology and language used also has a big impact on the audience that the magazine caters for.

On the front cover of the magazine the main image of Noel Gallagher has a huge representation towards the music magazine as it contributes to the idea of the target audience and who would recognize the artist. This would be older people rather than young. The main image is represented by a male to draw female attention to the magazine. He is a big figure in the music industry and is expected to be recognized by most people. The way he is stood against the amp tells us a lot about his personality and the story we could be reading about without even opening the magazine. The colors that represent the magazine front cover are simple but effective sticking to one color scheme not making it too busy and keeping the main focus on the image. The cover lines include a lot of gossip about people in the music industry and interesting stories that would make you want to buy the magazine and read more. The music genre in Q magazine is indie/rock which is also represented by Noel Gallagher on the front cover as he is well known for been in Oasis which is mainly Indie music. A lot of the songs he originally sang were deep and emotional but this is not shown on the front cover the feeling we get from him is blank especially due to the color of clothing he is wearing which is all black.

Music Magazine Influences

Vibe is a music and entertainment magazine founded by producer Quincy Jones launched in 1993. The publication features R&B and Hip-Hop music artists, actors and other entertainers. It is published monthly and the magazines target audience is young urban followers between the ages of 18-34. The magazine costs £4.45 in the UK. This is a really affordable price for a monthly magazine and i personally would definitely buy this magazine monthly at this price

Billboard is an international magazine devoted to music and the music industry and is one of the oldest trade magazines in the world. It maintains several internationally recognized music charts that track the most popular songs and albums in various categories on a weekly basis It is an American music magazine and is published weekly. The magazine costs £4.49 each week to buy in the UK. In my opinion for a weekly magazine this price is expensive and would put me off buying the magazine every week because of the cost.

LIIAR Analysis College Magazine Front Cover

LIIAR Analysis College Magazine Front Cover

I have used a medium close up image of my friend Leah Haywood for my main image on my front cover of my college magazine. I took the photographs of her in the art department at college as my theme for my college magazine is an art issue. I used a simple angle of her looking straight into the camera and at the audience. The lighting in the art department is bright because it is all open plan containing many windows and lights. In the background of the picture you can see various items which are in the art department to add to the theme and setting of art which i chose for my magazine I used a three part color scheme of black, purple and green which are the original Wyke colors that are used now in college and on advertising products for the college such as it's prospectus. This makes the magazine recognizable to people because when they see the colors before they even read the magazine they know that it is associated with Wyke College. The medium close up shot shows the art student as been happy and cheerful because of the clear facial expressions that can be seen. I included all of the conventions of a college magazine that i have already looked at previously. This includes: a masthead, a main image, a main cover line, other cover lines, an issue number, a bar code and a price. These things are what makes the college magazine recognizable and suitable for the audience it is aimed at. For the mast head i chose to call my magazine 'Lifestyle' as it's main heading with 'Wyke' written down the side of it so that it can be related back to Wyke College without it's main heading been 'Wyke' which wouldn't be as original or catchy. I used various cover lines as well as a main cover line relating to the image i used of my friend Leah. I made up the cover lines based on true stories about Wyke as well as thinking of some extra ones. The college magazine i have made is a Wyke magazine and would therefore be sold by Wyke for its students. It may also be put onto the market in shops through other agencies to help sell the magazine. The reason i have created this product is to inform the students that study at Wyke college specifically for this issue that take art as a subject what the art department have got to offer. Other issues of the magazine could interest other students in the college that specifically study other subjects such as sport or science and an issue based on that subject could be made. The magazine is informative including facts and figures as well as been attractive and fun at the same time. The values behind the media product are entirely educational and are all about the college itself and student life. The magazine as a whole isn't controversial in any way because it is aimed at college students as a whole. The need for the product is a way to keep students up to date with whats going on in there college in a way they can find out for themselves and how they can get involved and join in and make the best of college life. The magazine is aimed at college students especially ones that are studying at Wyke. It could also be aimed at the parents or relatives of those students that are studying at the college and are also interested in whats taking place and when its taking place. The magazine is only priced at one pound which makes it affordable for everybody that wants it including working class, middle class and upper class students. If the product was expensive it wouldn't be successful as students are known to have little money due to the fact that they are in full time education and don't have a full time job to be able to afford extras such as magazines. They are classed as a luxury and not a necessity as not purchasing the magazine wouldn't affect the education on the students therefore the product has to be affordable and attractive to make the students want to spend money on it. The media product represents success at the college and capability of its students. It shows people what the students at Wyke get involved with at the same time as allowing people to see how individuals have grown from strength to strength and achieved their potential at college. The brand that is represented is Wyke as a college and the name Wyke to the audience and the individual that is represented in this particular issue is Leah Haywood who is a current student at the college now.

College Magazine Analysis Three

Only one main image is used on the front cover of this teen magazine covering the full page. The magazine has a three part text color scheme using the colors: black, pink and red. The background main image is a mixture of colors including: white, blue and black relating to the text colors. The text stands out because of the definite colors used to emphasize the text especially the masthead. The colors used blend really well together making the magazine attractive and recognizable at the same time. The front cover of this magazine contains conventional features to a teen magazine such as: a masthead, a main image, cover lines, a main cover line, a bar code  a price and a date  that the magazine was published. The main image used is of a female celebrity attracting people to the magazine because of this celebrity feature. It also includes typical teenage cover lines including fashion and fitness. On this front cover of the magazine conventions have been broken as the main cover line usually the boldest and stands out the most of all the cover lines because it relates to the main image used but in this case the main cover line doesn't stand out as well as other cover lines about the latest teenage fashion tips. Teen vogue magazine began as a magazine for teenage girls produced in the USA. The magazine focuses on fashion and celebrities and includes information about entertainment and the latest feature stories on current issues and events. It’s first issue was February to March 2006 and the chief editor is Amy Astley. The magazine follows basic conventions of a teen magazine focusing mainly on teenage girls. As well as informal stories the magazine also covers teenage issues such as sexual health and pregnancy. The audience for this magazine  is teenage girls 16 to 19. The social class status of this magazine would be middle and upper class as the magazine is  more expensive than most teenage magazines and is more luxury such as it has a glossy cover rather than a plain one. I think the minimum age for this magazine is 16 because of the controversial topics covered which may not be suitable for teenage girls as young as 13. The magazine may not appeal to all teenagers for example males or girls that simply aren't interested in celebrities or fashion. The magazine is stereotypical of teenage girls as not all of them are as teen vogue would represent them.

College Magazine Analysis Two

Only one main image is used for the front cover of this teen magazine taking up the full page. The magazine has  a text color scheme which is using the colors red, white and yellow. The background image color used is blue. The colors are conventional of a teenage magazine as they are bright and stand out to young adults and teenagers to attract them to the magazine. The only dark colors used are within the main background image of the girl. The red, yellow and white work really well together making the text extremely visible and clear to read. The text shown is to encourage teens and college students to be attracted to the magazine because of the simple layout of the magazine front cover and the bold color scheme used. The cover lines give a snippet of each story that is featured inside of the magazine persuading teenagers to want to read more. The magazine includes main features such as: the masthead, main cover line, cover lines, a bar code, the date, the price, the issue, advertising and pull quotes. All of these features work together to make the magazine attract the right audience and be successful. The masthead is the name of the magazine and this is the boldest piece of text on the magazine front cover to make it recognizable. The main cover line and main image usually relate to each other and the cover line tells the story of the image. All of the elements included are conventional of a magazine front cover and therefore help to sell the magazine and make it appealing to audiences. Teen People was a magazine that was introduced in 1998 as part of People magazine. In 2006 the company announced that it was going to shut down the production of Teen People and the last issue was released in September 2006. The magazine  the company belonged to was Time Warner and was published in the USA. The magazine mainly featured teen celebrity idols as well a t he latest gossip. It also included competitions and prizes to be won as well as fashion and beauty advice for both male and female teens. The magazine was portrayed in a mainly celebrity limelight which could be seen as negative having a bad example of teenagers. This is because if girl and boys see a celebrity in a magazine they idolize them and want to be like them and look like them which is impossible and the celebrity influence on teenagers can get out of hand. The audience that this magazine was aimed at is teenagers 13 to 19 both male and female but it could be argued mainly female. The magazine attracts teenagers because the magazine includes everything a teenager could possibly want to find out about not all having positive effects on the younger generation of people at that time.

College Magazine Analysis One

Only one main image is used on the front cover of this college magazine taking up the full page. The magazine has a three part color scheme including the colors: black, white and yellow. The color pink is also featured on the front cover of the college magazine only once. The colors aren't necessarily conventional of a typical college magazine front cover. The bright colors such as white, yellow and pink are but the color black isn't as it is a dull color compared to the other bright ones which stand out. The main image is very dark and the background is black making the white and yellow text really noticeable when you look at the magazine. The text shown on the front cover is based around been persuasive and advertising the magazine at the same time. It only shows an insight into each story making you want to read more into the magazine. The magazine includes main features such as the masthead which is the name of the magazine and the main image which shows a college student holding equipment ready to do some work. It also includes a main cover line which relates to the main image of the boy. There are various cover lines on the front cover of the college magazines to entice the audience as well as informative features such as: the web site name, the price, the bar code, the date and the issue. All of these items are conventional of a  college magazine and usually feature on most of them. This makes the magazine noticeable and recognizable. ‘College’ magazine is a college guide and quarterly magazine written and edited by college students and created in 2007 by publisher and founder Amanda Nachman.  She was a student herself in her senior year of college when she launched the first issue of the magazine in September 2007. The magazine features all social college issues including: general advice, career tips, student success stories, sports features, celebrity interviews, sex advice and health questions. The magazine front cover doesn't feature anything offensive or off putting it contains mutual cover stories causing no controversy. The magazine is portrayed in a completely positive way with helpful and informative effects.  The magazine is aimed at an audience of students 16 to 21 male and female at college that are studying and anybody interested in any particular cover line that interests them in the magazine. The way that the magazine comes across is stereotypical of students but neither in a positive or negative way. Everything you would imagine to be included on the front cover is included to attract the right people to the magazine.

Preliminary Exercise Brief

Using DTP and an image manipulation program, produce the front page of a new school or college magazine, featuring a photograph of a student in medium close-up plus some appropriately laid-out text and masthead. Additionally you must produce a mock-up of the layout of the contents page to demonstrate their grasp of DTP.
