Double page spread images

For the double page spread, I decided to use two pictures of Billy and two pictures of Zaid. One being a mid shot, and one being a close up. With one of them showing a more serious side and the other showing a more fun side, it reflects off of the interview on the double page spread, showing their personalities. I also think that it fits well with the genre of my magazine, as you can see their style.

Contents images

Here are the images that I used on my contents page. One being a picture of the main band, which was the picture I was originally going to use on the font cover, and the other two of bands playing live. The two pictures fit in well with the layout of the contents page, as I used Kerrang!'s contents page as a rough layout of mine, and I think that the pictures show this in the final product.

Cover image

Here is the image that I decided to use as my front cover. I think it represents the theme of the magazine as being quite fun, showed by the expression on his face. I was originally going to use a photo of two people, but the image I wanted to use wasn't suitable for the magazine. Doing the shoot on a purple background, made me change the colour scheme of my magazine, as I originally was going to use red, black and white. It has now changed to purple, black and white. 

Preliminary

Here is my preliminary magazine front cover, being new with photo shop, the cover is really basic, as i stuck to basic fonts and colours that represent John Cabot.
