Here are my 3 model release forms of the models from my photoshoot signed by the models themselves.

Choice of colour scheme:

In this video I talked about what colours I used for my magazine and most importantly why I chose them.

Audience profile:

This post is me talking about my audience. I state who my audience is eg. age group, social group etc. and then I give an example of someone who would be my audience.

Equipment:

This post talks about all of the various equipment I used through the process of making my magazine, I have explained how I used each one and each piece of equipment is good.

ERROR: 'Class of 2015' is meant to say 'Class of 2014'

This is a video based around the ideas for my contents page, these are all of the ideas that I was thinking of during the process and I then picked the ones I wanted to include.

Timelapse of my photoshoot:

This post is a video which I edited in Premiere Pro, it's a timelapse of my photoshoot that I conducted. The camera which I set up to take these photos took a picture every 10 seconds during the shoot.

My magazine moodboard:

In this post I included various pictures that I would relate my magazine with, from social media platforms, to festivals and even to clothing etc.

Box out text:

I aim to include 2 box out texts within my music magazine.

For the first one, I will be placing it on the double page spread which is covered by one big photo of my artist, almost like introducing my feature article. On this page I aim to include a fact file on my artist as I try and attract my audience. This fact file will be told by the artist himself to make it a little bit different, something that maybe the audience hasn't seen before. In this fact file I want to include the artists name, age, nationality, place of birth, height, siblings, education, instruments and other artists performed with. The title and underlining of my fact file will be black and red, to stick with the colour scheme of my magazine. All of the titles that I just listed will be in grey and the answers for them will be in black. I have decided to make them grey so that they stand out against the answers.

For the second box out, I will be placing it on the second page of my feature article. On this page I aim to include an album review of my artist as I try and give off an honest opinion for my readers. Each song on the artists album will be designed in a vertical style as I list each one. Under each song name there will be 5 stars, if a song was rated 3 out of 5, 5 of the stars would be in red and the other 2 would have no colour. The title of the album review will be very similar to the title my actual magazine as I plan to use the same colour scheme and same font. Each song name will have a number before it in red and the song name will be black, this is so that the song name stands out against the number. The font of the song names and numbers will be a very bold one as I want it to catch the eyes of my audience and I want it to look appealing to them.

Proposal feedback:

This post is a very detailed video post. I opened up my proposal for this girl and she read through it and pointed out all the good points to it and also the things that may need improving.

Music magazine cover lines:

Above is all of my cover lines that are on my front cover, I think that they are very attractive and they stick to the colour scheme very well.

Promotional methods for my magazine:

In this video I explained the various promotional methods that I use for my magazine, these promotional methods I beleive will give my magazine a much better brand name/reputation.
