Photo-shoot Plan 2 by Welsh_Jonathan

Double Page Spread Flat Plan - Pre-Production Work

Contents Page Flat Plan - Pre-Production Work

This was my first contents page flat -

I created a second contents page flat plan to use as I did not like the layout of the first because it did not have enough spaces for all the contents page article headings and their information.

Masthead Design

I may also use the bottom left or bottom right typeface for my masthead because they also look bold, edgy and futuristic, which relates to electronic music in the way it sounds.

I will most probably use the typeface second down on the right because it is very unique and bold.

Press Release

Music Magazine Press Release by Welsh_Jonathan

Music Magazine - Picking The Name

I found and thought of a few words that related to electricity so that it linked in with the idea of making a magazine related to electronic music. 

Red = Personally the worst

Orange = Personally average

Green = Best chosen

I chose Impulse because it relates to electricity, so it also links to the idea of electronic music.

The idea behind the word also holds power which would be attractive to my target audience.

An impulse is the push or pull of still or moving electrons, ions or other charged particles. It is also an emotional urge or desire.

Most of the words I did not choose because they were too weak sounding or had bad or other irrelevant associations.

What is a magazine?

                  What is a magazine?

A magazine is a publication that is usually sent out to sell periodically, some are hardcopy but some magazines can be published digitally.

The magazine will usually have stories, pictures and information relating to the front image of the magazine or could be generally about films, books, knitting or other different subjects.

Magazines will usually have a masthead that is eye catching to the target audience. Magazines usually have coverlines too which give a little bit more information about what is in the magazine. Puffs or Buzz’s are used to draw the reader in by saying something is ‘free inside’ or something to make a sudden interest for the reader.

The purpose of a magazine is to be interesting to the target audience, by having relevant images and text, this may be a niche or large audience.
