The colour scheme gives the magazine a retro look because there is a lot of red on black and white. the model gender is male and they look layed back but attentive the clothes also connoted a retro feel a throw back to the beetles perhaps. the dominant text is a bold horizontal and mainly red. the first eye cather is the alex and miles feture because it is different than the rest of the text because it is the only text in white and also it is on a black background the reason for this is because it is the exclusive on the magazine and the main feature.

the camera shot is a meduim shot of the two models back to back with conotats that the they share different views on some subjects however another reading is that it connotates that they have each others backs. the whole photo is in focus this provides a clear impression of the magazines and the interview style. the text is clearly spaced around the faces of the models this is because the publishers whant the readers to identify with the models.

MY MUSIC MAG IDEAS

My music magazine is going to be across between Mojo and NME because Mojo is the second highest magazine in circulation. its circulatioin is 100,507 and 72% are male and are heavy comsumers of music (CDs). NME has a circulation of 40,948 and the median age is 23 the readers are obssesed with music and films so there can be a film review section. The reason for picking a hybrid of these two magazines is because it attracts the youth of NME but the it can susstaine the older readers with some classical rock music. A feature could be that in each mothly edition the will be a new rock legend this will also introduce the younger generation in to the music of old. The class i will be aiming for is acb 1.
