Research and Planning: Drafts of Front Cover 1/12/11

Research and Planning: Future Photshoots

I will need to take more images for my magazine after placing the images in my draft of my magazine I have decided that I could do with taking pictures which are in keeping with my colour scheme however I will still use the images I have taken. I need a image on the front cover of my model also which will will need to be a medium close up. I need to take a few different images of my model to go with my interview, I think this has given a much better idea of where I am up to and what needs doing.

Research and Planning: Clothes for tommorows photoshoot



Resarch and Planning: Props for Photoshoot


I will be using these props for my photo, as it is outside I will be covering the stool with material I have chosen a green piece of material to blend in and a leopard print which would fit with my genre. I am going to see how each of these look with my model. 

Research and Planning: Drafts for Contents and Front Cover

Research and Planning: Double Page Spreaad Draft Up to Now

Research and Planning: Fonts for Double Page

 I decided to try several different fonts, I decided that I would use a font that appears to be hand written so that the interview feels more personal however this font is too tall and doesnt fit well, I feel there is too much space between the lines
 I feel this font doesn't fit my genre as it is very neat and everything in my genre is quite messy and grunge like.
 I liked this font I will consider this for my magazine as it isnt clean cut but it is also ledge able
 I liked this font however it is very impractical as you cannot read the information that is written
I dont think this font suits as it is quite clean cut yet messy, I dont like the way it doesnt have a clean cut line below the font, it is too messy for a magazine.

 This again appears too neat for my magazine
 I like this font however it doesnt have capital letters therefore cannot be used for the magazine.
I like this font as it does appear handwritten without looking too fancy.
