2. Masthead at the top of the
page as this is a convention of
a magazine. I choose the
colours Green and Red I positioned the barcode in the top
because these are bright and right hand corner as it filled an
eye catching so they create a empty space and would otherwise
strong contrast. I have chosen of partially blocked the image
to stick with this colour
scheme throughout the
magazine as not to over Cover lines are place
complicate the visuals of it in a C shape as this
is often done in
I added in a date and price of magazines as this is
the issue as this is how the eye scans
conventional of all magazines over the page
The image I used is a medium
close up and the “Artist” is
making eye contact with the
camera this is conventional for all
magazines. I also got a prop
speaker as it is stereotypical of the
Rap genre

3. The masthead is the exact
same colour as the Here i put in a
masthead on the front promotional offer
colour to add uniformity for my own
and consistency to the magazine, this is
magazine fairly common in
most magazines
I stuck with the
red and green
colours in my
text as it
connotes
consistency with
in the magazine
I inserted a clothing
voucher which is
representational of
the genre of rap
I added a black background to
make the red and green colour
increase the contrast

4. I put “Mashers”
album title at the top
of the page so it is
easy to know what
the article is about
For My double page spread
i firstly added a large image I used this image as it is
of my artist “Masher”. The representational of the genre
pose and prop in the image as rap comes from an urban
connotes that the sofa is background and this is very
inexpensive to Masher and much what everybody within
his pose shows he is in a the culture would be doing
position on power and
wealth
I again choose to keep
the font and colour
scheme the same as is
often done with other
magazines. They
usually layout their
magazines around 2-3
colours
I used a drop cap at the start of the
article as this is a convection of I choose the layout of my
magazines article to be an interview and
to write it out in a question
and answer format
