Front Cover Draft

Here is my most recent draft of my Front Cover. I have changes some of the fonts and colours of the typography so that it ties in with the theme of my magazine better. I gave adjusted the layout framing the dominant image so that it looks more chaotic yet still structured. As well as this, I have edited the dominant image so that it looks better and has a more professional look to it. I have changed the size of the original price and website address so that it is smaller. I have added the price again in the top right hand corner so that it can be easily viewed by the audience so they know how much the magazine is. However, I still need to adjust some of the sub images and sell lines on the right hand side so that it looks better and fits in with the rest of the front cover better. I will, also, try to fill some of the blank space towards the top of the front cover. I still need to change the picture of the snapchat filters so that it is an original image and not Kylie Jenner.

Draft of Front Cover

I have added more sell lines to my Front Cover to give a busier and more chaotic layout. I have, also, added more images of the posters that are available. I still need to replace the pictures of Kylie Jenner's Snapchat so that they are original images instead. I feel like I need to rearrange some of the sell lines and change some of the fonts to make them bolder and more attractive.

Generic Conventions

Here are the Generic Conventions of a Pop Magazine/Pop Music. In my group we have identified what things we would expect to see in a Pop Magazine. In doing this we now know what type of things we should be including in our own magazines and we can see things that we have missed and things that we still need to include. This could be used as a sort of checklist when we have finished our magazines so we can make sure that we have included everything.
