Contents page mock up

This is a mock up of the contents page of my music magazine/ newsletter for deyes high, i first planned to make it like this but i have changed it alot when making it because it didnt look that good. i have changed it to not having the pictures at the bottom but kept the title and the logo at the top. I have also kept the contents part but just moved it down to where the images are.

Music mag front cover mock up

This is a  mock up of my music magazine/ newsletter that i have made for deyes high, when i have made it i changed it to being more simple and basic because the front cover looked to full. I took away three of the pictures that i planned to put on but kept one and kept two sets of the writting. I also changed the bottom by puuting in a bit of text abit like a sub heading but just underneath the main picture.

music genre research

Music genre research



We have to research which type of music we would like to use when we are making our own music magazine, i generally like pop and hip hop but i will look at others like rock, indie and metal. There are alot of different music magazines for alot of different genres of music, and we have looked through alot of them.

I have chosen to do hip hop as my music magazine genre, I have chosen this genre because that is the type of music that I listen to when I do listen to music. I don't listen to music all the time and there are different parts of hip hop that I like and don't like.

Font ideas

This is a screenshot of the type of fonts that i was thinking about using for my school newsletter/ music magazine, the top one is grid which i did use as the main titles on both pages and the main writting at the bottom of the front cover. The second one is type writer and i decided not to use that.

Music magazine

My prelim photoshoot plus evaluation

(Click pic to enlarge)

These pictures are the first set of pictures that I have taken for the prelim task, this is to create a school newsletter on our own including pictures of students. The first set of pictures that I have taken are of  a group of students playing football, the hardest part about taking photos of people playing football is to get the ball in the picture in the air with the person kicking it looking normal which it did not happen on a few, it was also hard to get the light right we had to move a few times to get into shade to take the best pictures. The second set of photos that I have taken are of a student in sixth form who I chose because I thought he looked smart and represented the school well, he looked presentable and smart these are some main attributes that the school want to display. I have took the pictures of him outside the school sign to show the name of the school in the background, it was hard to get the right angle because the sun was shining onto the sign which reflected the light into the photo. The last set of photos that i have taken are of the same student in a science class with a bunsen burner, I have done this because deyes high school is a specialist science collage so I wanted to show something to do with science and I wanted to show modern and new that the science labs are to give the school a modern look aswell as its old style look of the main building in the front of the school in the background of the one with the deyes high school sign in.
