FINAL PRODUCT - FRONT PAGE

Here is my final product.....

This is the final cover for my music magazine.  The masthead has a tab behind it. I used two fonts which is 'GEORGIA' which is the font used for all the text except for the masthead. I used 'OBELIX' (from dafont.com). for my Masthead. The reason why I chose these fonts was because 'GEORGIA' was very simple yet bold, and it was a perfect font to use for my articles to make my texts stand out to attract the attention of my audience. I chose 'OBELIX' for the much more important text on the cover such as the titles of the magazine. Its a very bold font which is fit for a Bollywood magazine as most Bollywood magazines use bold and colour texts. i decided to keep my masthead black because i did not want the colour to clash with the other colour on the cover and i also wanted it to stand out and be different from the rest of the page. it make is stand out more i added a red tab behind the text. I chose 'AVIRBHAV' for the name of the magazine because it sounds very foreign ( indian) thus giving my magazine a bollywood feeling. the audience will straight away know that the magazine is a bollywood magazine.  The name Avirbhav is associated with music, it is that technique of presenting the raga, in which the raga is noticeably expanded and exhibited so I thought it was very relevant to the style of my magazine.

The image is quite colour full and vibrant because the colour gives my magazine a Bollywood theme as Bollywood is well known for its bright and vibrant colours. i decided to use a white background because the models sari(dress) contrasts with the whits background thus making my model the main focus.just white background looked quite plain so i added colourful shapes in the background but i had to change the capacity and experiment with different colours to make sure the model is the main focus.  I wanted to stick to it as a consistent theme throughout the magazine, including the doublespread.  I'm going to use coloured pictures in my contents page and double page spread to stick to it as a consistent theme. Colourful image and background gives it happy exciting feel, to relate to the idea of my magazine being Bollywood.

I chose the name 'PRIYA CHOPRA' for the girls on my cover as the name is very indian , and the name is a well known indian name giving my audience a clue the its a Bollywood magazine .

I made up the articles on the cover and I thought they would be very suitable. The 'EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW ' article is something I tend to see on lots of  magazines because people love to read interviews of celebrities .  'Top 10' shows the best music in the current charts which will help my audience discover new songs and briefly expand their knowledge of indian music.
