MAGAZINE NAME

Prisma – This name is different which signifies that this

magazine holds something that others don’t. It makes the audience think of a prism which has many angles and sides; this suggests that articles will tell a story from multiple viewpoints instead of being one sided.

Fresh – The name tells the audience that any stories will be

fresh, as in they’ve just happened and the magazine has the inside scoop. It could also mean you won’t get better articles anywhere else as it’s the ‘freshest’.

FRONT COVER INSPIRATION

I have chosen these three front pages as inspiration for my own music magazine front cover as they are simple yet effective poses. They engage the audience by having recognisable faces, simple backgrounds and main cover lines that stand out. This is a look that I aim to recreate.

CONTENTS PAGE INSPIRATION

These contents pages are ones that I will try to take inspiration from when creating my own music magazine. The images in the contents page are also quite simple but work at the same time. The centre contents page splits up the information which is something I find useful and aesthetically pleasing.

DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD INSPIRATION

These contents pages are something I want to recreate as I will have a female as the featured individual. For all three images, the writing fits the artist perfectly. Simple layouts are used which is something I like.
