Sketch layouts of front, contents and double page spread

Here I’ve designed and sketched my initial ideas for my front, contents and double page spread of my music magazine. I’ve gone for a quite simplistic and minimalistic feel, as I think it’s more about the featured story rather than bombardment of confusing waffle.

 

Here is my audience feedback for these three sketches, interactively powered by Voki.

 

 

Magazine contents page annotations: Vibe magazine

1/3

2/3

3/3

Here I’ve annotated the contents pages taken from popular culture magazine, “Vibe”. I chose these contents pages in particular as they are aimed towards my demographic. There’s also lots of aspects to talk about, such as layout, colour, font sizes and styles, etc. In my annotations I’ve discussed these points and explained how the editors of Vibe have made the spreads effective.

Mock up of contents page

I’ve also designed what the contents page of my magazine would look like if it went onto be published professionally.

Annotation of contents page: Ciara

Here is another contents page, this time featuring Ciara, which I’ve annotated to explain how the editors of the magazine have informed their readers.

Annotation of contents page: Usher

Here I annotated a contents page featuring R&B superstar Usher. In the text boxes around him, I’ve described how the editors of the magazine have got their message across.
