Examples

Of Front covers

I have decided to choose these front covers of music magazines as my examples as they are eye catching and attractive. All these front covers include main images of male music artists (singer) who are well known in the music industry. It is also the type of genre that these music magazines come under which is ‘hip hop/rap’, I chose this because In my coursework I will be thinking of making a hip hop music magazine so these are more relevant.

Example of Contents

page

I have chosen these examples of contents pages for my mood board because they are all very clear and include important information which is readable for all audiences however the use of colour and images are specific so they can attract the target audience. The target audience would be similar to mine as the genre of my magazine would be similar

Examples of double page

spreads

I have chosen these double page spreads for my mood board because each of them have different house styles that include different colour and layout however they are all clear and attractive towards each of their targeted audience
