Brief
Main Task Students must produce the front page, contents page and double page spread of a new music magazine. (Photoshop will be used for image manipulation and InDesign will be used for page layout and design features on contents page and article)

Mood Board Front Page

What I like about FutureMusic magazine is how shapes are organised upon the page in accordance to the text to make the front cover more appealing and less plain. I liked the simplicity of the CLASH magazine as well as the fact they used two different colours for the cover line and the further information that goes into it. I like the use of merging the colours with the background and text and image in the BONAFIDE magazine because it creates a nice effect which is appealing and striking.

Mood Board - Contents

On the Drummer Magazine I like fact the pages are significantly bigger than the text to clearly state the whereabouts of the articles. I like second magazine because the layout has been made to look neat therefore it looks concise and goes well with everything else. I like the way the title in the last magazine is layed out as it is challenging the conventional way of the contents title.
