Practice front cover for college Magazine

This is my unfinished practice cover of a college magazine which will give me an idea how to make a front cover on the actual magazine we will be creating in InDesign, however this practice was created on photoshop so i could edit things like the masthead and make it seem like it is in the background and makes the magazine seem popular.

Contents page for Q magazine

In class we discussed and analysed the contents page and its different conventions. There are many conventions in this contents page such as Flashes, various shot types, fonts and a variety of colour schemes which make this magazine more attractive over other magazines; this suggests that the target audience is perhaps for young adults with a taste for rock music.

Magazine Mock

This was the first task that we had started in my AS Media class. The task itself was to reproduce a double page spread of a magazine article we had been shown. the software I used was  InDesign, which is a software used by many magazine designers. The genre of this music magazine is R&B which we can clearly identify, because of factors such as the style the artist has tattoos etc.
