Jordan's Double Page Spread Mockup

When putting together my double page spread plan I decided that I wanted it to be very clear and simple and I knew that I could achieve this in one way or another as the article was going to be quite long and would take a lot of space on the page as would the picture and the title and quotes would take up the top of the page.

Will's Contents Page Mock UP

I have researched into contents pages used for rock magazines. I have decided that this is an interesting way of setting out a contents page. I really want it to be eye catching and easy to read.

Lucy's Contents Page Mock Up

I like how this contents mock-up is full and looks exciting and intersting. The font style that we used for 'Kaleidoscope' is called STEAK and i think that this looks really professional and fits in the theme of rock. I like the way that we are using one big image, and then several smaller images. I think that having these smaller images at different angles makes the page look eye-catching. The main feature of the page is the listings and we have decided not to use a 'letter from the editor' as we do not feel that this fits with our overall rock theme.

Fran's Contents Page Mockup

We found a contents page online that we liked, it had many pictures surronding it and so we deided that was the route we had to go down. We liked the idea of using images to show the contents of the pages, and we wanted to make sure that the logo was the main focus of  the page. The main image will also be of the band we are interviewing to show the audience that they are the main focus of our magazine.

When planning for my contents page I wanted to make sure that everything was set out in a clear way and wasn't to crowded on the page, I want them to be clear and if I feel it is too bare I may add more images or more contents listing to lengthen and fill the page.

Lucy's Front Cover Page Mockup

I am going to use this mock-up as a base for my final fornt cover. I like the idea of having the main image filling the page and even covering some of the masthead. This will ensure that it stands out to the audience. I want to have various small sell lines around the page in order to make the page look interesting and to advertise what is in the magazine. We also think that the barcode and price is an important thing to have as this is a main feature of all the magazines that we have looked at and we want ours to be as realistic and professional looking as possible.

WIll's Front Cover Mockup

I have tried to make my mock-up simple yet stand out. I want it to be clear what the mesage is. I have used a large main image and placed in central. I have tried to make the masthead stand out. I also placed the anchor text near the image to show that it relates to the main image.
