1. Front Cover
•On the front cover there will be a large image of the popular
band ‘ the collective’ taking up around 75% of the page with a
fenced background, with the album name ‘It was good while it
lasted’ going across the bands picture below the bands name
which is conventional for my genre of magazine ‘Alternative indie
rock’.
•There will be a boarder around the page in a deep red colour to
draw attention to the band.
•The masthead ‘Fix’ in the font ‘Franklin Gothic Heavy’ this font is
not displayed within my final research as it is located on photo
shop i decided to use all fonts of photo shop as it is easier and
more convenient and allowing me to be more flexible with
designing my magazine yet still sticking to the conventions, it will
be placed behind the image of the band this is conventional for
this genre as it connotes the importance of the image, a
magazine which uses this is NME and in my opinion does it very
well, as it never fails to connote the importance, for my masthead
I will use red font as red and black are my chosen colour scheme
for my magazine.

2. •Around the image there will be black, white and red font
in the style of ’incised 901 BD bold’ and ‘Agent’ which are
both similar to the font of ‘Cella’ which a sample of this font
is displayed within my Final research, with the names of
other bands such as Florence and the machine and the
killers, Linkin Park Biffy Clyro and others this will give possible
buyers a quick inside to the content of the magazine, the
text surrounding the image will be in blacks and reds as this
is the general colour scheme for my magazine as it was the
most popular choice from my questionnaire and focus
group also proved to be conventional for this genre,
however due to yellow being popular within my
questionnaire i have chosen to use yellow for the bands
name to connotes its importance.
•Above the picture of the band, there will be a promotion
which will sell the magazine to my target audience as it
was proven to be an effective way to draw the attention
of readers possibly free exclusive posters of the band
members.
•There will also be ‘World exclusive’ written across the
bands picture at an angle to promote the bands story
within my magazine as my double page spread will be an
exclusive of the band.

3. Contents page
•The contents page will be laid out the same as Kerrang.
• Does with a large image of the band in the top left with
the main features of the magazine running down the right
of the focal picture of the band, which I learned was
effective after looking at Hannah Spooners work.
•I shall also have 4 other pictures on the page in the
bottom left there will be a picture of the editor (myself) with
a brief description of this issue. There will also be two
pictures of posters within the magazine overlaying the main
picture of the band to the bottom left of the image. In the
bottom right hand of the page there will be an image of
the front cover.
• The font I am using is ’incised 901 BD bold’ using black
and red text as this is the colour scheme of my magazine,
only the main features of the contents will be stated. The
text will be kept minimal to try and captivate my target
audience youths.

4. Double page
•The double page spread will be an exclusive of the
band on the front featuring a fact file and
Band/singer latest releases as these were the most
popular choices from my questionnaire which I
conducted.
•A large image of the band will be on the left hand
page taking up around 80% of the page with the fact
file underneath it.
•On the left hand page there will be an image of the
lead singer of the band, and the Band/singer latest
releases in column format in the font ’incised 901 BD
bold’
