drafts to my music magazine

this is my first draft and idea of how i see my music magazine
it photographed a female in the middle of the page. The female will have her hair down showing 'swag' and she will be surrounded by coverlines.

this is my second draft with a 'vybz' masthead. this shows the kind of vibe the magazine brings to its audience. it consists of three artists. the male in the middles is topless with masculine muscles and also a female next to him to balance the kind of audience it attracts.
my third draft consists of two masculine, topless artists. i came up with a new masthead to bring a new meaning to my music magazine. it will consist of high lighting and coverlines written in different colours from the main coverline.
my fourth draft consists of a different masthead and three different images of different artist. the main image is placed in the middle of the magazine and the two other images placed on each shoulder, showing the hierarchy between artists. the coverlines and dateline are placed below the two images leaving the main coverline at the top next to the masthead.
the fifth draft i came up with consist of an artist in the middle of the magazine in a medium long shot showing the artist raising both hands in the air. it include a selling line at the bottom of the masthead to show a relationship between my music magazine and the audience it targets.
the sixth draft i came up with allows my coverlines to be at the bottom of the page because the main image is a medium long shot placed at the top of the magazine. the artist is to catch the audience eye at the first glance. it consist of a female artist posing in a super hero position to connote the kind of topics the magazine brings in the music industry.
my second to last idea brings the idea of ethnicity in my music magazine. a black artist in the middle wearing jewellery showing wealth and where black people stand in the music industry. i included puff and coverlines at the side of it making him seem more important.
my last draft consist of three boxes of different images and not having a main image. this is to show the equality between the artist and the main coverline is written at the bottom left corner, allowing the audience to see it first if its been placed in a shop and giving information about the three artists. it comes with a puff and selling line.

profiling my audience

My music magazine reader: Jermaine is in his late teenage years age 18 and has a passion and drive for music. Has a young man he had attempted to record music tracks of his own and put them on YouTube for friends and other music fans to view and get feedback. Jermaine is inspired by R&B/Hip-Hop music and his pursuing his dream of an artist by devoted half of his college money as a student to buy albums of coming up artist and artist that already made it. Jermaine is an A level student studying media, dance and performance, business and art. He also has a collection of mix tapes and has attended many music concerts with his friends. His friends know how to socialise with him as Jermaine will only be friends with you if you have rhythm and same interests as him. There have been occasions where Jermaine invites his friends over to his parent’s house and has given them a performance of his own. As a teenager he is also interested in playing his playstation saving some money for the latest call of duty game, computer as one of his crucial ways of socialising with his friends, going cinema with friends to watch the latest films, very active in college by taking part in sports and making the college football team and always up late to watch TV.

My music magazine will be designed in the interest of Jermaine as my music magazine will involve a female artist in the front cover as the main image and cover lines will be based around the lives of artists and how they became who they are now. There will be bonuses and gifts relating to gaming, computer, films and sports which will target my music audience such as Jermaine. I have designed my music magazine with a sexy photograph of an artist as my main image which attracts my target audience as most of them buy magazines because of who is in the front cover and the quality and posture of the picture.
