Week Seven

I have spent quite a lot of time on the research for my magazine so by next week I would have liked to have started the actual construction of my magazine. I have designed a mood board with various emotions that would reflect the genre R’N’B which I have chosen. I have also included images which might relate to the stereotypical aspects of a R’N’B music magazine. I have also been looking closely at different magazine covers as well as teh conventions of a music magazine. This would be very useful to me as it will allow me to see what needs to be included in a magazine and the effect that each of these have. By knowing what the conventions of a music magazine are it will then allow me to incorporate them into my own magazine.
I have also been looking at the competition for my genre of music and aimed to see how other magazines such as 'vibe' seek to draw in and attract their customers.
