MoodBoard

This is a physical mood board i have made from taking images from double page spreads from from rock magazines and adverts to see what colours and styles are used to represent the bands

Masthead designs

Magazine Name Survey

I had many ideas for my magazine name, but I didn't know what to call it. I could not then plan the rest of the magazine without the name and its colour scheme etc and also need to make a 5 line paragraph without referring to my magazine as ' my magazine'. Therefore i decided to make a survey to see what magazine name my audience prefers and think is the best. Not as many people participated in this as i wanted but the majority voted for Sound Check and I found out that Thrasher is already a magazine. Which therefore leaves Sound Check as the magazine name. I think this is appropriate for the magazine name as it suggests it is about live music and I am planning to photograph and interview a band before/after their first headlining gig. It is appropriate and attracts to the target audience as they all saw live music at least 2 times a year.

5 line paragraph

SOUND CHECK magazine allows young metal heads to escape capitalistic society and find all the lastest and biggest rock stars around to feed their music knowledge and thirst. The first offical announced gig dates for the rockers to find their monthly mosh fix. Personal interviews influenced by the )

Masthead ideas

This is an idea for a masthead of my magazine.
I have used red as the main colour as i found this was used most in rock magazine. I used 2 R's as the mast head , like NME and Q because it enables the masthead to be made larger and the image would stand out more than writing. I wrote the name of the actual magazine on the letters so that they can easily tell what its actually called.
I had other ideas about making the hole in the 'R' in the shape of a guitar but I will try this out when I know what I will actually call my magazine after I have collected my results from my survey. I changed the font of the text to see what would look best for a rock magazine and i think that the bottom last one would be the best, however I do like the simple font on the last image and is similar to 'rock sound's' font. I think the text on the other mastheads are too small but I like the idea, however the last masthead has the most visual impact

Mind Map

This is my mind map of ideas for my music magazine. I have mainly used information from my survey for ideas as I want to make a magazine that will appeal to my audience. I have put down the most important ideas that my audience want, for example many people say that the most important part is the interviews and date planner etc and they are interested in finding out about new music.
