FINAL MAGAZINE PICTURES 'RAVER'

DRAFTS

Costume/Props Planning

Costume/Props Planning

For costuming and props I decided to use items that relate to the genre of my music magazine. For example my magazine is a House Music Magazine and so for props I used headphones which shows that the artist is a DJ. I also purposely used pink headphones to make it more feminine as being a DJ has a stereotype of being more male dominant, so as my cover star being a DJ I made sure she wore items that were girly and chic. 

  This picture was what I used for inspiration, the girl has headphones but she does not look as colourful than I want my star to be dressed like. So for the cover and double page spread I want the outfits to be both edgy and colourful. So I had the idea that the DJ will wear a black t-shirt in one outfit then the other with a colourful pinkish jacket.

RAVER

1. The first typography suits the theme of the magazine which is a House Music Magazine, where vibes and beats are associated with House music, and the typography #1 has got an electric feel to it which will suit the magazine very well. However I cannot picture it as a suitable title for a magazine as it does not look as professional as most magazine titles do.

2.The second draft for the title of my music magazine is clear and readable and has too got an electric/techno feel to it which will support the genre of my music magazine.However I don't feel it is a good choice to use #2 typography as it does not look professional and i cannot picture it on a front cover of a magazine. 

3. When I was playing around with fonts on Photoshop, I saw this font which I feel does not really support the genre of the magazine but it is very creative which could attract peoples attention. 

4. The third font has got the House music feel to it. It is also bold and eye-catching. it also is suitable for a front cover of a magazine but I do not think it is the right choice as it not that easy to read but also I don't feel it would suit the type of image I am aiming for. 

5. Out of the 6 fonts, this is my favourite. It has the techno feel to it, it suits an electronic music magazine and also it is bold, clear and eye-catching. I like the colour scheme but during the production process of my front cover I might change the colour used to suit the front cover image. 

6. I liked the creativity of this font but I do nor feel it is suitable to be the title for a magazine, especially for a music magazine.
