Double page spread 3rd edit



For my 3rd edit of my Double Page spread I made multiple changes as I thought it lacked in content and needed to look more vibrant. i did this by putting the colour red in the most important parts of the page as it would catch the audiences attention. For example I put the colour red as the background for the 'Top 10 Songs From Rohan' as I would want the reader to see that column first as it shows he's successful in the music industry as his music is one of the best. Another thing I added was the quotes around Rohans face as it demonstrated his passion for music and the audience can relate too him through the quote. The name Rock-star Rohan along the middle of the double page spread is also standing out as it's also he first thing I want the reader too see as they will know straight away it's with a famous Rockstar. The use of red for 'Rockstar Rohan' also signifies passion which is what Rohan has for his music. I then added another question as I believe it lacked content and I wanted the reader too find out more about the rockstar.

Front Cover draft 3




For my front  magazine third draft I've changed the title of the font too more metallic and bold as it fits more with my genre rock. The quote 'Free concert tickets ever 10 issues' is much more readable and shines more on the page as when readers pick up the issue they will see this and buy the magazine as they will both read the magazine and maybe get a free concert ticket. The cover-lines 'Where are the best rock concerts?' and 'Tips on how to be a rock star' are in orange as orange represents excitement which is what the reader will feel when reading both articles as they will find out where the best rock converts are and how to be a rockstar. The cover-lines 'Arctic Monkeys touring UK!!!' and 'The Fray talk new music' are in yellow as this signifies happiness which is what the reader will feel when reading these articles and so are the artists as they are speaking about something that makes them happy. The images of both bands were used so that the reader can recognize the bands straight away when looking at the front cover and turn the page straight away to see what they are speaking about. The huge cover-line 'Rohan Neupane: Time on tour was mental' is in red to demonstrate too the reader that this will be an article that the singer felt many feelings. The text is also in bold writing as it will be the first thing the reader sees on the front cover, and as the quote is 'time on tour was mental' this will make the reader want too find out what the singer was up to on tour, that was so 'mental'. I also added the price of the magazine which is £4 and the date of the magazine, I've made it £4.50 as my magazine is targeted towards people who are in jobs so adults.

contents page draft 2


For my second draft of my contents page I made the title 'Contents Page' instead of 'Contents' as i wanted it to be much clearer. I've also used the colour yellow for the title as it signifies happiness which is want i want the reader too feel when looking for there article and finding it. The colour red was also used to show that all these articles make you and the writer feel a lot of emotions, and makes you feel closer too the artist or writer. The background black was used once again too demonstrate mystery which makes the reader want too find out what the magazine has too offer. The picture was in black and white which are both opposites that are attract and go well with each other. His face is always serious in most pages he's on to show he is serious about his music and wants to be successful.

Double page spread draft 2


In this double page spread I have decided on putting Rohan on the left and making him look serious as it shows his seriousness for his music and to show his determination to be successful. The guitar in the background of the right hand side is used to show the audience that its a rock magazine and also to demonstrate he's a rock singer. I have used the colour orange for when he is answering the questions as the colour orange signifies enthusiasm, determination and success which I want the reader to see in the singer and be motivated to be like Rohan. I've done this to represent Rohan's personality of wanting to succeed in the music industry and also how enthusiastic he is when performing his music. The background behind the guitar is also black to once again demonstrate however his seriousness of his music and how he wants to achieve.
