Step 1 of my magazine cover.

In this blogpost you will see the first step of me creating my magazine cover, for this screen shot you will simply see the main image of the magazine cover after it has been edited and placed onto photoshop, this is the base of the magazine

Main image changes.

In this blog post you will see 2 of the same image, but one has been edited. The reason why I edited the main image was because the quality of the image was quite poor, were as the second image looks closer to a professional standard and would more likely be on a magazine cover than the first image.

Quote.

In this blog post you will see a screen shot of some text I wrote using a downloaded font off www.dafont.com

The reason why I have done this is because according to my research most band names on magazine covers tend to have a quote by it, you'll see an example below my screen shot.

The image below is where I got all my ideas from, this was my inspiration for my music magazine, if you look towards the bottom off the image you'll see "SOMEBODY'S GONNA GET KILLED..." just below the band name, Slipknot.

I'll have my quote below my band name for the front cover of my music magazine, the name is the on the screenshot below.

Advertisement.

Advertisement

In this blogpost you will see an advertisement banner what I made to place above my mast head on my music magazine. I got this idea from the magazine cover I'm basing mine on, made by "Kerrang!" as you will see below my advertisement.

Barcode

Bleach, band name for my music magazine cover.

In this blogpost you will see my band name which will be posted on my magazine cover, I wanted the name to stand out so I went for an unusual font which was downloaded and installed from www.dafont.com

Mast Head.

In this blogpost you will see the masthead I have created for my music magazine and why I made it the way I did.

The reason I chose to make my masthead the way I did is because I'm basing my magazine cover off the famous rock magazine "Kerrang!" and I really took a liking to their mastheads and the font, so I used the website "www.dafont.com" to download a similar font but not the exact same as "Kerrang!", as shown below.
