Shot list

Front cover
On my front cover, I have decided my colour scheme to be black, white and red. However, as this is a common theme amongst many students in my class, I want to change it to white, black and yellow. I want my magazine to be unique and different from everyone else's. I got my inspiration from the music magazine 'Flavour'. As it being one of my favourite magazines of all time, I aim to create a magazine similar to Flavour by using Photoshop. However, I am aware that I need to be careful not to recreate the magazine. My artist will have two sides to him, good and bad.

Double Page Spread
My original idea on my double page spread was to include my artist sitting down, looking down against the wall which would be placed on the left hand side. However, I also found out many people had this exact idea so I decided to change it. After thinking, I want to either have one whole page dedicated to the image itself. Or have the artist posing after the wall white different shots underneath it. I got my inspiration of using one page for the image itself from the magazines Flavour and Vibe.

Contents Page
As Vibe is my favourite magazine, I didn't like the layout of the contents page. This is due to the fact of the way the title is written. In my opinion, I don't think it is very effective. I have decided to keep my magazine very simple as making it too busy might not attract potential customers.
