Second draft completed

This is my second draft of my front page for my music magazine. The improvements i have made since my first draft are;
-Changing the background colour from white to purple
-Adding another picture on the bottom right hand side which has been edited on Adobe Photoshop
-Changing the issue number and date's colour and background and the position of it
-Adding a website address at the bottom of the page
-Changed the 'Tuned In' titles position to the top left
- Edited the main big picture to change the brightness and took away the shadows
- Took off the logo
- Took away the picture on the left and replaced it by the title



I done them improvements to make the magazine front cover look more professional.





This is my contents page, the improvements i made since my last draft are;
-Making the top picture of the three girls smaller to make it look neater
-I added the guitar picture and a caption to it to take up more room and fill the blank space
-Moved the 'suscribe' box to the bottom of the page









This is the first of the double pages of my music magazine. Since my first draft the improvements that i have made are;
-I changed the whole storyline and the characters from two boys, to two girls
-Added a main title next to the picture
- Kept the idea of a fake tweet but changed it to match the storyline
-Took away the logo from this page to create space
-Took out the arrow and the caption that was on the top of the page








This is my second of my double page spread and the final page of my music magazine. The improvements since my first draft are;
-Edited it more in photoshop by filling it dodgy editing work
-Rounding off the edges of the outline of the photo

I havent done much improving on this page because there wasnt much i needed to do. The two double pages relate to eachother because the story on the left, matches the person or 'celebrity' in the poster on the right.

Logo for my music magazine

This is the logo that i created to go onto my music magazine. I have designed it like this because it is simple but at the same time is effective. Something i would change about it if i had the chance to do it again, is fill out the white space where the text 'Tuned in' is written. A logo on any magazine is important because it is used to recognise the company and it advertises the product.

Tweet that i made for my music magazine

I made this fake tweet to go onto my magazine because it makes it look more professional and realistic. i made it on a website and created all the text myself. Having a tweet from 'a celebrity' on my double page spread, makes the story in the interview more reliable to the readers and is there to entertain.

First draft completed

This is my front cover for my magazine. The background photo has been edited on photoshop . I have edited it by taking out all of the shadows and making the background all one colour. I have also taken blemishes off both of the peoples faces. 




This is my first draft for my contents page for my Music magazine called 'Tuned In'. I have completed it on Adobe Indesign and edited the pictures on adobe photoshop. The picture in the bottom left hand corner, i also edited on photoshop to make the background all one color and to make it look more professional than it is. The text i wrote is all relevant to the music magazine. 














Out of the two pages i done for my 'double page spread' to go into my magazine, this is one of them. The story is about the friendship between two musicians and how they do not get on together. I have made the text the style of an interview to make it more exciting and professional. 













This is the second page of my double spread. I decided to fill it up with a poster because it makes it look realistic as a magazine. I edited the picture in photoshop and put in the blue background to make the female stand out. I included a caption at the bottom to include some information about who the poster is of.
