2. Features that I will include on my Front
cover:
Puffs will say World’s Best Rock Magazine above the logo/title
Masthead will say the name of the magazine in a logo form in the top left of the
magazine
Plugs will be used on my magazine as I will want to be advertising
Have a certain house style that is promoted throughout the magazine
Feature article photograph, Mid shot/long shot and a low angle shot
The magazine will be Named R as this resembles Rock and the magazine is based on
rock music
I want to have a 3D layering affect so that the title is in front or behind the feature
article photograph on the page.
I will need to use good typography and a font that is easy recognisable and can be read.
Some pull quotes could be used from the feature article photo
3. Features to include on my contents page:
I plan to use about half and half with images and text to list pages
There should be minimal writing on the page there should not be much said about each
article to make sure that the reader goes to the specific page and reads it there.
The contents page must include persuasive typography to make the readers want to
read the entire article
Most contents pages have a date on so that the reader can see when this magazine was
published
The same colour scheme should be used throughout the magazine even on the
contents page, I plan to make this red and black
Non or little fillers should be used
Feature photo’s should also be used to represent the secondary main article in the
magazine
The layout of my contents page needs to be simple but not messy, this means there
should be equal spaces between items on the page so that the pages look balanced.
4. Features to include on my double page
spread:
I would like to include on my double page spread a feature article photo that will show
what the article is about and portray the point of the article.
The layout of the page would need to be so that the image is rather in the centre of
both pages or on its one single page to what the text is on.
Fillers could be used to take up some space around the edges of the double page
spread I don’t want to use too much though as it will make it look un-neat
Text will need to be in columns so that the magazine looks conventional and neat.
I should also include some other smaller photos other than the feature article photo
perhaps in a different type of shot such as maybe in a different area.
There will need to be a masthead on the page that is qwerty and attracts the attention
of the reader.
Pull quote can be used to show a quote that the subject in the photo is saying
Drop caps will need to be used to make the text look funky and like a magazine
