Double page spread

This is my favourite bit of the project as it allowed me to express my writing ability aswell as my creative and photography ability. I really love how the colours contrast on this double page spread to create a magnificent display of excitement and passion. The Photographs work extremely well in creating the perfect composition of the double page spread as they give a central feel to the text and the name of the artist.The font of ''Mike Minor'' emphasises that he is unique and individual again appealing to an alternative audience. The way the text raps around the red design also is an interesting feature used within this spread that gives it the ''raw'' and alternative look i was aiming for.

This is my final contents page for my new music magazine. I feel that i have combined elements of colour and imagery together well in a way that makes the page look intersting without being too over crouded.

Final magazine cover

This is my Final front cover which i am extremely happy with as it combines a range of texts, colours and layouts to create a professional and conventional new music magazine. The text used for the title is very bold and eye catching as it uses an interesting font type and powerful colours which add to the theme of my magazine. I decided to revert back to colour for my picture on the magazine front cover as it gives the magazine a sense of togetherness between the colourful front page, contents page and the double page spread.

front cover drafts

This is my second draft were i have added text, information and a mast head. I really like the outcome as it incorporates an alternative look which is the intended genre of my music magazine.

This is my front cover draft of my new music magazine, raw fusion. I like the contrasting black, white and orange photo as it really catches your eye and enforces the magazines ideology of being modern and raw, hence raw fusion. I edited the image in photo shop using various different techniques to acquire this unique outcome. The composition of the items featured on the front cover work very well together however on my final front cover i will add more texts with different composition layout. The thing i like most about this draft is the individual fonts i have used which again come together to give the whole outcome a feeling of individuality and raw fusion!

Final edited photos

My photos

This image is my favourite which i will be using for my front cover after i have edited it using photo shop. I like the composition of the guitar as it is unique and conventional to my modern magazine and its alternative music style.
I will use this image in my double page spread as it will fit perfectly into the corner of the page. Also there is a nice colour contrast between the dark clothes and the orange sunburst of the guitar.

I feel that i will not neccisaerily use this image in my final outcomes as it seems a little bit unproffesional and to staged. However i really like the central positioning of the peace using a high angle shot for variation from standard medium shots.

I am extremely happy with each of these photos and i would really like to feature every single one of them within my music magazine however i am not sure weather i can fit them all into it.

This is one of my possible photos to be published in my magazine 'Raw Fusion' as it posseses a certain factor which reflects the ideologyof my magazine. The unedited version of my photo seems to be missing something as it dosn't look proffesional although i think it is a good picture. After i edited this in photoshop i found it looked a lot better and more proffesional.
