The magazine i want to create is very similar this NME front cover above^^.
The colours which are being used are very basic however it has a powerful feel about it. The fonts being used are going to be very similar to mine and the layout in very similar way, i want my magazine to have the same feel this magazine front cover above. The main image is a great shot and i would like my magazine i create to have the same style, as its an effective shot. Overall the front cover above, will hopefully have the same feel to the magazine i design.

Music Magazine Proposal

I might call my music magazine 'LIVE LOUD' because you cannot listen to music when its quiet, in my opinion you've got to have it loud, also the 'live' part explain music helps you live your life, for example going to festivals, gigs, listening to music in day to day life.

Here are a few music magazine front covers:

this magazine front cover is a Paramore special. Paramore are a well know rock band in todays society. The shot is of all the band, however Hayley Williams is a main focus of the shot being used. The shot is showing the Paramore having eye contact with you, because the eye contact with the audience draws you in.

This is Karen from the band Razor Candy on the NME front cover. The effective image karen leaning on her guitar looking at the audience, this image makes the guitar also seem important in the shot and not just karen.

This Kerrang magazine front cover has Green Day's main man as the main image. This shot that is being used,when he's maybe performing at a concert, he isn't looking at the audience however this image is still effective with his guitar.
