My Music Magazine Genre Choice.

For my music magazine i have decided to choose my genre of my magazine as a rock/ heavy metal theme. I chose this because it is one of my favourite genres of music and will be good to create a magazine about. Here are some of the artists that fall under this category.

The Blackout

Korn
Arctic Monkeys
My Chemical Romance








Photoshop Practise

Here is the image that I practiced on in Photoshop. I used the different tools to alter the image and gain a better idea about how the software works and how it may help me produce my music magazine.

My Music Magazine Basic Mock-Ups

These are my music magazine basic mock ups. I have made them very basic so your get a little feel for how my magazine will look. I will be adding to how my magazine will look when I develop new skills for creating my magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread.

This is a basic mock up of the front cover of my magazine.

This is a mock up of my contents page within my music magazine.

This is a mock up of the double page spread which will be in my music magazine.








Music Magazine Photographs

These are a selection of photographs that i took but i will NOT be using in my magazine. They give me an idea of what i need to do to improve my photographs and what i exactly want in my photographs.

I took this by accident, but still think it looks good.
