picture 12

12) I am going to use this photograph on my DPS in the bottom left hand side. I have decided to edit the areas of the photograph where it isn't actually the keyboard to make the keys stand out even more.

Picture 11

11) I am going to use this photograph on my DPS. It is a close up of the microphone I think it is very effective the way the light reflects off the microphone. I am going to blend the background to blend in with the DPS.

Picture 10

10) I decided not to use this picture as it is very similar to the above image (picture 9). I thought the picture above was better so I choose to use that one.

Picture 9

9) I decided to use this photograph of the lead signer as I am trying to use all the band members on DPS. I am going to use this photograph on my DPS in the bottom middle. I am going to edit the background so it blends in with the DPS background.

Picture 8

I decided not to use this photograph on my DPS as I have already used a lot of close up shots already on my DPS. I have decided to use it on my contents pages.

Picture 7

I am going to use this picture of the guitar being player. I am going to edit the background. I have tried to edit the background so that in blends in with the background of the DPS. I have tried to include all the band members and their instruments so they are equally used in the DPS.

Picture 6

6) I decided not to use this picture on my DPS as I am using another close up picture of the keyboard (picture 12) but I have decided to use this picture on my contents page.

Picture 5

5) I am going to use this picture on contents page to make the audience want to read the article. I am going to also use this picture on my DPS. I think it is a nice picture of two of the band members 'messing around'. It shows their fans their personality and there audience can relate more to normal shots rather then staged ones.

Photograph 4

4) I decided not to use his picture as none of the band was looking at the camera and I also feel that there is a lot of free space at the top of the page and at the bottom it is very crowed.

Picture Three
I have decided to use this picture on my DPS in the bottom right corner because it a nice picture that has the whole band in it in the studio mentioned in the article.

Picture Two

2) I am going to use this picture on my content page. The issue is a special 'Brigg Kidz' special with an exclusive interview with them so I am going to try and use as many pictures as possible to try and make the magazine stand out to the fans and make them want to buy it.

Anlaysing My Photographs

Picture One

1) I decided to use this picture on my front cover, content page and DPS (double page spread). I really think this picture I effective and by using it on all three things then it creates a 'link' between the front page and the DPS. I think it is a natural shot of the band. It shows the audience how human and normal the band is. On this I would have to edit the background to get rid of the of the grey box.

Evaluation Of My Questionnaire

From my questionnaire i have found that most people i asked were aged 16 to 25 years old, and they were mainly females so i have decided that i am going to aim my music magazine at this target market. I found that most of the people asked brought a magazine because of it's appearance and the features that are in it so therefore i need to make the appearance and the features of the magazine stand out to my target audience. Most of the people asked said they didn't buy music magazines but the people asked who did said they brought either 'Kerrang' or 'NME'. Also most people i asked who did buy magazines said they only brought them a few times a year. I asked what colours stand out to people and they would like to see on a magazine, i found that the most common colours where bold colours like black, red and purple so i am going to try and use these colours in my magazine to make it appeal to my target audience. I found that the main types of music that the people asked liked were; R&B, 'Pop' and 'Rock' music so i am going to try and include these types in my magazine so that the features stand out to my target audience. My target audience also said that the price they would be willing to pay for a monthly magazine is 2-3.99 so i have decided to average it out and i am going to sell my magazine at £2.99 because it is just short of £3 and people are more likely to buy the magazine because £2.99 looks like less money then £3.
