Original ImagesI took my images on a plain white background to make it easier for me to be able to edit the pictures in Photoshop and if needed so to edit my model onto a different background. I have took a range of shots from headshots, medium close ups to full length body shots. I also had my model change her hair, clothes and make-up during the shoot of images. I did this because I wanted to have a wide range of images to choose from and be able to edit easily aswell as having enough to choose and select for my front cover, contents page and double page spread. I will begin to manipulate the images using Photoshop for things such as airbrushing her skin for it to appear more brighter and healthier. After choosen and my best images in Photoshop I will then begin to put them together into mock front pages.

 

 

 I wouldn't use this image because the model has moved in the image.

My hand drawn mind map of ideas and planning for my magazine which I have scanned in. Some of these ideas I will develop further such as my magazine mastheads.

6) Pricing of my Magazine.

The price of my pop music magazine would be above £2.00 but below £4.00. The reason for this is it would be priced at more than £2.00 because the magazine company and publication company would not make a profit. The reason for been below £4.00 is that the target audience for my pop music magazine are young teenagers and university students and will not have a full time job or alot of money to spend. Also there is a shortage in jobs because the economy isn’t doing so well, not everyone can afford to spend an excessive amount on something that isn't an essential in there lifes but more a luxuary at an affordable price. I want my magazine to be published Monthly because average music magazine produce their issues monthly as you can sell the magazine at a higher charge as well as being able to atain more in the magazine. The average music magazine often charge around £2-£5. ‘Q’ Music magazine charges £3.99 and is published monthly as it is quite expensive.
