Update

The poll I posted on my blog influenced me to change the magazine title from 'TS' too 'YMB' (Your Music Bible'.
I have also decided to go for the plain look like what is shown in the magazine 'NME'. I find that magazine easier to follow rather than other leading magazines such as 'Q'.

I have taken all the pictures I want to now and I need to start to put together my contents page and double page spread and think about
Font
Space
Colour
etc.











I need to edit some of these pictures further.
Some have been edited.
I was going for a kind of vintage style look when I took these images so I edited a few in a sepia mode and a few in black and white.

New Front Cover Edit




I have changed the title and moved the main image slightly to the right.
I am next going to try and add some more images to the front cover as it looks too plain.
Using the conventions of an established music magazine I have also put the image on top of the masthead.

Potential Contents Page Images


Potential Double Page Spread Images


I took these images for potential double page spread images.
I wanted to be continuous with the theme I have used for my artist 'Freddie King' (using black and white images) I have done this because I think that it reflects what the interview contains such as his drug use, loss of his mother and the affair with 'Alice Russell'.

Changing Front Cover

I am going to change my front cover.
I am going to shift the main image slightly right as the title is unrecognisable and it's not an established magazine.
I am also going to play about with different font colours to see which one's stand out the best and look more professional.

Also things to add:
Issue Number
Price
etc..
