Today's lesson was about getting used to a new software called page plus. In order to help us try out this software we had to create a magazine front cover, contents page and a double page spread. in today's lesson I have created a front cover and a contents page sticking to my target audience and focusing on the pop music genre I have chosen.
The star i have used on my front cover is Selena Gomez because i know that she is a huge star in the music industry and a lot of young girls look up to her and see her as an inspiration. Choosing the right picture/person for the front cover image is vital because it is what the customers see first and therefore it must make a good impression and grab the attention in order for someone to buy it. In this particular magazine i have decided to stick with the colour pink, because it's a very girly colour and it could mean more girls would probably be more attracted to. i have kept it pretty simple but it still looks busy. Normally pop magazine are very crowded giving as much information as possible and this is a way to show how much of the money the magazine is worth. In this case i have made the front cover busy but sticking to small amount of information, probably the man topics inside the magazine.
With the contents page i have decided to include the same font as the Masthead, and kept everything simple and plain.I feel that the contents page has to be easy to read because that is something which navigates you through the magazine. I have only included a few of the page numbers but making it simpler will be better because i do expect young girls buying this music magazine.
