Improvements on Front cover, contents and double page spread

This is my final version of my front cover. I have made several changes to the magazine. The first thing I did was to change the fonts of the sub headings and make sure that they are all level with each other and at the side of the page. I also moved the subheading about LOL on life away from the picture as before it was over the picture but had nothing to do with the picture. The next thing I did was add a website to the front cover as throughout the magazine there are articles that have more information and picture on the website.  I then made the title of the artist and the main headline bigger so that they became more noticable and made the competition smaller.


This is the final version of my contents page. I have added more articles as my magazine will not have had enough articles to make the audience want to buy the magazine. I also changed the colour of the titles of Regular and Feature so that they stand out more.

This is my final article for the double page spread. I put the article into columns because that is a convention of a music magazine. I also added a drop cap at the beginning of the article because this is also another convention of a music magazine. I wrote a bigger introduction which explained why the magazine was using her as the double page spread article. I also added the page number at the bottom of the page to reinforce the contents page.

This is the final picture that will be on the second page of the double page spread. I only made two changes and these were putting quotation marks around the quote in the corner of the page and then added the page number to the right hand corner of the page to reinforce the contents page.
