Research and Planning: More Research.

These are a few more contents pages and covers of the same music genre as my magazine.

1. This contents page helped inspire mine, as the layout for this professional magazine is very similar to mine. The pages are quite complex and have a particular scheme of colours, which is what helped influence my magazine in deciding which colours would be appropriate.                 

2. I took influence from this magazine contents page by taking some of the elements such as the heading and subheadings of the page numbers, and simple layout of rectangles and squares accessorised to make the seem far more complex and interesting than it actually could be.

3. This cover was quite influential, in terms of elements used similarly between the cover photos of my magazine, and of this professional version. The black and white filter helped me decide on my own variety of colours, and the Mise en scene of the artist clothing helped me make the decision on what my model should have worn.
