My Headline is about ‘Justin Bieber’s number 1 winning
streak’. This links to pop music as he
is a pop artist. Also the anchorage explains that we talk to him about his life
and his future which links to the gossip aspect of pop magazines. I chose to
have the text pink as it contrasts with the header and the footer.
My cover lines are ‘The gossip on V festival’, ‘Is Rochelle and Marvin’s relationship on the
rocks?’ and ‘Top 10 Review’. The first 2 cover lines relate to the gossip
aspect of pop magazines, but also music as it’s about a pop music festival and
members of 2 pop bands. The ‘top 10 review’ is also my double page spread as my
questionnaire results show 73.3% of people would rather read reviews.
The Masthead of my magazine
is “neon beat” as neon is related to pop and beat is related to music. I have
chosen to have it in the font billo as it is bubble writing and reminds me of
pop music. I have chosen to put the colours as white text against a pink
background as I want the text to stand out. Also the pink background links to my
target audience of young girls as my questionnaire results show the most
popular audience are 11-20 year old girls.
The pug is “win an ipad” which links to my target audience
as it is something most young girls would want. The colour is yellow as it
differs from the pink and white theme making it stand out.
The footer says ‘See Lawson Live! – And Meet The
Boys Backstage!’ This links to the pop genre as Lawson are a pop boy band. I
chose to have white text against a pink background to mirror the masthead
theme.
The running head is a smaller version of the masthead from
the front cover to keep the theme going throughout.
The word ‘Contents’ is written in pink on a white background
mirroring the theme of the front cover.
Each section has a different heading, which
explains the different aspects of the magazine. It is written in white against
a pink background, which mirrors the colour theme throughout.
The main image will be of one of the artists or bands
mentioned in the contents page.
The editors letter will include a bit about what
the magazine is about and includes this issue and how it was made.
The running head of “neon beat” is there as a reminder of
what this magazine is.
The Headline is personal to the magazine and the writer of
this article. This is because it is about the writers opinion on each song in
the top 10. It is written in a sans serif font in a big size in he coour pink
to appeal to my target audience of young girls.
As it is a double page spread I decided to use
columns, which is a common convention in magazine stories.
The stand-first is short but explains what the article is
about and also explains that it is personal to the magazine as it is the
writers opinion. It is written in white against a pink background which is
mirroring the house style and colour theme.
The main image will be of some of the celebrities who are featured in my double page spread story.
