MastHeads:
As I have decided that my magazine will feature music rather than fashion. I must create a masthead. As my photos have already been taken, this will work to my advantage as they could be used as inspiration.
Other aspects of inspiration are previous and successful music magazines. For example:
Kerrang:
This is the logo from a very successful music mag. As the title of the magazine is unusual,unique and original, it attracts readers. Furthermore, as it is an abnormal name, it is easier to rememeber which works to its advantage.
The name itself I think is pretty self explainatry for the genre of music. It is catchy, quick and quirky which fits the genres of music mixed into the magazine. As the writing is neither flowery or coloured to represent 'females', the rock style is clearly shown.

Photos:
Here are my photos for the magazine. During this, I will need to decide which ones I will use. As for the ones I havent used, they will just be placed in planning:
Here is a photo of my male model. Like planned, both models were dressed in casual wear. This will give my audience the chance to relate to ordinary people. In this photo, the model has refused to show any facial expression. This photo could be within my double page for a negative story.
The next two photo's will be placed on te double page but as extra photos. I like these photos as they are plain and simple.
-
As my magazine is based on Music mags, the next two photos seemed vital. By combining a guitar and microphone, this automatically has linked my models into a duet band.
When looking through all of the photos taken that day, this is my favorite. I have decided that this will be my cover photo for the front cover.

Overall the photos was a success. As there are fewer photos of my female model. the double page will be based on the male.
The use of the white background will make editing the photos much easier for things such as 'cutting out'.Also as both models have vibrant/bold hair colours, this will also be easier to cut out rather than a lighter shade.
