Photoshoot Images

I liked this photo from the photoshoot for my magazine. I wanted to use it on either the front cover or the double page spread. The only problem was, I was using the magic tool on photoshop to delete the background and the top that the model was wearing is the same colour as the wall. The magic tool then couldn't recognize that the top was different to the background so it would delete the top when I tried to delete the background. The problem was lighting because in actual fact, the top wasn't a different colour to the background therefore the lighting made it look that way.

Rationale

My contents page will have an image of my front cover but it will be small. It will have arrows from the articles that are on the front cover and it will have the page numbers that they are on. I am doing this because lots of Pop music magazines do it and I think it looks good on a contents page. I am having a little box in the corner with other page numbers so readers know what else is in the magazine. I will also have more information on what you can win and how so readers know what to do. There will also be some pictures of either existing celebrities that I have taken at concert or the one on my front cover. This will make my contents page more interesting.

Fonts and Colours

I have decided to use the font Impact for my masthead. This is a bold yet simple font. The font can also be made to look more bold using shadows. I am using this font because I am adding hearts around it therefore if it was a more bold font it may look a bit too much.

I am changing the colour of my masthead from black because that colour is too dark for a pop music magazine. I am changing the colour to pink because it is more of a girly colour and you would expect to see that colour on a Pop magazine. I am changing my masthead to pink for that reason but also because a lot of my target audience said that was their favourite colour so if the masthead is pink it might attract them more.
