Vibe contents page analysis

 Vibe magazine conents page.Ciara a famous singer/actor healines it. This emediately points out that this magazine is aimed for young adults and teenagers as Ciara would be role model fopr nyoung people. The background fates from lighter to darker and Ciara's clothes are almost the same colour as the background, this makes her the vocal point of the contents page. The fact Ciara's leg overlaps the title and the word 'contents' strengthens the fact that she is supposed to be the vocal point. The writing is very easy to read and the word usage seem to be kept to a minimal, that would ensure the audience reads on. Overall the vocal point takes up half of the contents page and the text should be kept easy to read with the bare minimum being given away.

my college contents page seems a bit sparse.

Magazine outline ideas

As you can see both of my outline will have a main image being the vocal point as that seemed popular with the music magazine.

Music magazine research.

To start of my music research I decided to research the covers of music magazines first. To begin with I simply searched "Music magazine covers" on google images. I emmidiately noticed a trend, most of the popular looking magazines seemed to have celebrites headlining them. Looking through some of the results from google images I started to notice that 'Vibe' and 'Blender' magazines seem to stand out most. Both magazines have celebrities headlining them. I looked through previous magazines issues and celebrities headlining these magazine seem a regular occurance for these two magazines. The celebrity overlapping the title shows that these two magazines are established.

 As you can see here previous X-factor winner Leona Lewis headlines 'Blender' magazine cover. She seems to be the vocal point of the magazine, which is illustrated with her head overlapping the title.





 Picture below global superstar T.I healines 'Vibe' as you can see he is the vocal point. He like Leona Lewis overlaps the title.

Music Magazine introduction

We have moved on to the music magazine from the college one, which we completed
before christmas 2012. For our music we are going to have to make a front cover,
a conents page and a double page spread. The images we use have to be our own
and the minumum number of images we can use are four. The content of the magazine however can be decided by us. In order to make a decent music magazine, you have to take a look
at current popular music magazines. I will  be researching through music magazines in my next slide.
