Flat Plans

Front Cover



This is a prototype of the front cover of my indie/rock magazine.this image shows the initial ideas of how the magazine will be presented to the public.I have included both text and rough sketches to show the positioning of article headings ,photographs and the conventional aspects of a typical music magazine.
 I have decided to use either a close up or a mid-shot of my chosen celebrity artist for the front cover.I have decided both of these shots because they will instantly attract the target audience and compliments the magazine genre and the text used.


Contents Page



I have chosen to use this format for my contents page because it is quite different and individual from other indie rock magazines according to my research.The photographs on the contents will be a variety of original and edited photos i have taken myself of the framed artist and a backing group of musicians and images from live concerts i have seen.

Double Page Spread

This double page spread shows how my magazine article will look ideally.i will take a long shot photo of the celebrity who is also presented on the front cover.The picture will be split into 3 and slightly distorted for a more rocky edge to compliment the genre better.
