Ideas:

 

 

All these fonts are very nice and stylish and would look good of my front cover but they do feel like they are right for my audience, as they do not really capture what i am trying to get across in my music magazine. Therefore i will not be choosing any of these for my final design and will be sticking with my original font ideas but anhance it further to make it cleare and more proffessional.

Vinyl brand name design idea 1:

Why did I choose the name Vinyl?

The reason for me choosing the name Vinyl to be the name of my music magazine as it very much suits the target audience I am aiming at; which is young adults and older teens who are into more 'indie' bands who are starting to sound more and more like bands from the 40's to 70's. This means that the word Vinyl fits comfortably in that catorgery, as vinyl records were being used all through this era and music was a huge part of life, especially in the 60's and 70's with such bands as the Beatles forming and changing the world of music. Also I gathered some 3rd party feed back about my choice and they seemed to really like the reasons why I choose it and thought it was "catchy and very easy to remember" from these comments I saw that the name Vinyl would be best for my music magazine therefore as you can see below I have already started to work on developing some designsfor my tittle:

Photo shoot ideas 2:

The sort of photo shoot feel that I want to create is very hard to obtain via casually picking any old place and making someone stand there, I need the right atmosphere, setting, props, clothing, expressions, lighting etc. without these then the photo is not eye catching and striking therefore I have gathered a few images of famous bands which revolve around my created artist. From these I can see that the image is what makes a band or solo artist without it they cannot express themselves. For my feature article the image will be very much retro and in a vintage style so that the reader and see what the artist is trying to portray in his music, without looking too deeply in the article; the connotations of the page.

Content page:

For my content page i will feature around 6-7 different artists, so that the reader can see all the main artists who are being features in this issue. For each of these artists i will not put a s much detail in them that i will be for my main artist, as otherwise there would not be any point having the featured artist. Also i will be featuring images of most of these artists so that the reader can see what they look like, and if they recognise them then they might go straight there, yet i will only use snippets of information about each of these articles, so that the reader has to actually read the article to find out about the bigger image.

Hopefully my content page will look similar to the one that can be seen of the right, as it is up to date, and the design is very smart and professional. The layout of my content page will be very similar as well with the feature article having a bigger image than the rest so that the reader is drawn into reading it, therefore increasing recognition of the magazine.

Most of the artists that i feature on my content page will not be very well known as i am trying to promote new bands who have only just got onto their own two feet in the music industry. Therefore will give the company a good way to advertise itself and bring in money from these bands.

 

Also i will try to make my content page really draw the readers eyes to these 'unkown' artists via using bold colours for the page numbers and big tittles, so that the reader see's them as soon as they open the page.
