FINAL MUSIC MAGAZINE CONTENTS PAGE

FINAL MUSIC MAGAZINE FRONT COVER

Final Music Magazine (presented through Issuu)

I have presented my final music magazine pages through Issuu. This allows me to see how my music magazine would actually look if it was made available either digitally or if it was printed. I also included an appropriate advert on the reverse of my front cover, before my contents page. The advert is for a music festival which is taking place in the UK, (where my music magazine would be published). The advert is relevant as the festival it is advertising is a rock music festival which matches the genre of my music magazine. Also, the headlining band of the festival is mentioned on my front cover, and in my contents page.

This is the bar code I am using on my front cover. I will add a date and a price to it which is appropriate to my music magazine. 

I will also include social media logos on my contents page. This shows my audience how to keep in contact with the magazine. My research showed me that the three social media sites I choose were the ones most frequently used my y target audience. I used Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. 

Development of my Magazine

I have shown the development of my music magazine pages by comparing the initial sketches, the flatplans, and the final pages which I created. By doing this I have found that mostly, my flatplans follow the design on my initial sketches very closely. The reason my final pages don't completely follow my plans is because it is difficult to tell too how something will look before it is made. Any decisions I made in my final magazine pages which were not planned was because the idea either didn't work or did not look good so I changed it.
