TITLE

1967 Indie Magazine

PRICE

£2.99

FREQUENCY OF PUBLICATION

My magazine would be published fortnightly.

HOUSE STYLES

I want my magazine to be as easy to understand and

read and simple but still full of information and style

as possible. Due to the indie theme I have picked I

feel as though the style of indie is very laid back and

chilled which I want that feel to come across in my

magazine. So I will use fonts that are edgy but

haven’t got that much edginess that they are hard to

read or take the focus away from my main image.

MAIN IMAGE

The main image that I will use is of a band which I will photograph

which is relevant to my Indie magazine. Due to them being an indie

band I will plan what they wear, hair and makeup, props and where

the setting is. I want the final image to be easily recognisable as an

indie magazine so will take the typical codes and conventions of

what ‘indie’ is in order to be able to grab the reader’s attention

weather this type of magazine is what their interested in towards

other people who may not know would be able to easily understand

due to recognising the typical codes and conventions of ‘indie’.

PHOTO SHOOT PLAN

For my cover image and DPS I will photograph the people I have

chosen. I want the setting to be on a grey to white background and use

props which will be an electric guitar a drum kit and a cigarette. I want

their hair to be messy or in style with the 1975 band as I will look at

photo shoots from their band to get more ideas. If they have any

imperfections on their skin I will just cover them up with foundation

and maybe highlight there facial features with other bits of make-up

e.g. pencil, highlighter& mascara. I want the lighting to be quite bright

but will edit the picture to be black and white and make sure that the

props and face and hair stand out.

MAGAZINE COLOUR SCHEME

The colour scheme for my magazine will be black

white grey and occasionally red and yellow. Though

out the magazine pages I want them to be mainly

black grey and whites, which will fade into each

other and also make shadows. Then I will use the

bits of red and yellow to highlight information and

focal points which I want the reader to immediately

focus on e.g. maybe bits of an image or the

beginning of text.
