2. The title name of my magazine
‘Pulse’ I chose this because I felt
that it would be a good and
catchy name as when you listen
to a song that is up beat you get
involved into the song and you
feel more alert and there for
your pulse will be at a higher
rate.
3. The Masthead design was that I
got the font of my magazine off
www.Dafont.com and I used this
as it looks like pulse is travelling
through the word. The colour of
my Mast head is black as my
house style through the magazine
is Red, Black and White.
4. Mise-en-scene: Costumes
The reason that I have chosen these
costumes for my images are so that it
shows that my artist is in with the
latest of fashions and will be an idol
to his fans for them to want to be
and dress as well He looks
presentable and eye catching. As he
is a young and modern male most of
his target audience will like to be like
him.
5. Mise-en-scene: Poses and Facial Expressions
The pose that my artist is
expressing is that he is confident
but also cocky attitude. His facial
expressions are showing that he is
cocky as will love the attention that
he once seeked. I feel that this was
the best possible expression for the
front cover as it shows the
individual in his true light and his
natural personality.
6. Mise-en-scene: Lighting
I have chosen to do the lighting
coming in and shiny in on his face as
it will emphasis his expressions but
also his body as he is the main object
to be focusing on. I feel that this was
the best option to place the lighting
as it will show of my artist to his best
possible ability. This is a Mid-Shot, all
of my photos were taken like this as
the main focus is on his face and his
actions with his arms.
7. Mise-en-Scene: Props and Setting
I haven't really used any props for my
artist as I am showing him naturally,
my artist is a modern and
fashionable individual. The setting of
where my photos where taken were
in an all white room.
8. Title, Font and Style
The font and style of my text will
appeal to my target audience as it is
eye catching and no other music
magazine has font like it, it follows
the conventions of a music magazine
as when they want something to
stand out or to be noticed they will
make the font unique and different
to the other font on that page so that
it is noticeable.
9. Genre
My magazine genre is House, my
magazine shows this as it has a list of
the top House artists up to date such
as David Guetta in my magazine. I
have also got a list of a number of
other artist’s featuring in the same
genre such as Deadmau5, Madeon
and Avicii. This type of genre is
loud, up beat and gets everyone up
dancing.
10. Written Content
The questions which I asked the artist was:
What is JonCONN?
What’s your sound?
How did you find your love for this music?
You have been compared to as a younger David Guetta
What did your first live performance feel like?
Reviews say: ’JonCONN’s live performance are like no other, something about them keeps you
drawn in’ Please explain your secret
Where in your career would you like to be in 1 years time?
Who do you aspire to be like in the future?
What are your hobbies and interests other than music?
Who’s your favourite artist?
What’s your favourite lyric?
What’s your favourite song?
At the beginning of my interview I followed the conventions of standard interview and
introduced my artist first and said abit about them before I asked them the questions. The type
of language that was used was informal as I was asking the questions on the spot and the artist
answered them as he felt necessary. My editors profile is also informal as I have said what I felt
and I have used exclamation marks to emphasis my point. Writing in this form means that the
reader will feel like they are talking to the artist and will keep them drawn in and interested.
11. Layout
The way that my image is arranged
on my front cover is that the writing
is placed around it and that the
picture is the first thing that you see
and is the centre of attention and
your eyes will be drawn to it. The
masthead is at the top of the page so
that it is noticeable that is the name
of the magazine. Following a
convention is having the image
layered over the masthead.
12. Contents
The features that are involved within
my contents that relate to other
contents are that its got a list of
where the reader can find what is
going to be in each issue every
month. It has picture of my artist as
the only image on the page. There is
a detailed list of stories to choose
from but the main one is first, the
one you will see and read first.
