Layout / structure- For they layout of my magazine, I want the main image to take up the whole page and the coverline’s around the edge of the magazine to be pull quotes and for the magazine to have a tagline at the top of the magazine to make it easily recognisable.
Name of magazine and font for masthead- The name of the magazine I went for was ‘Smash Resistance’ because the name is kinda like a contradiction- because resistance is against something and fighting against something, but to smash it is like breaking the resistance- and I thought it was an ideal name for a Rock genre magazine, because they are always breaking the boundaries in music.
The font for the mast head I used was

I thought the font style for the magazine, was rather good, because the style of it looks like it’s been smashed/broken up so it fits in well with the title of ‘Smash Resistance’.
The main cover line I wanted to use wasRead our exclusive interview with Britain
For my magazine I wanted to use 2 people to have a ‘band’ for my magazine, I wanted the artists to be a heavy rock duo with attitude, so for their outfits I gave them leather jackets and for Adam- I dressed him in a black shirt, green tie, leather jacket and jeans. And for Harriet- I dressed her in a blazer jacket, T Shirt and stone washed jeans.
And for both of them, we gave them a heavy make over-
For Adam- We gave him an almost Ziggy Stardust eye make up to give him a more dangerous and rocky look and for Harriet we gave her eccentric colours around her eyes to look like a sunburst.
I let Harriet have an ‘indirect’ mode of address she is looking away from the camera and holding her hand up to the camera and through the gaps in her fingers we can see Adam giving a direct mode of address to the camera, giving eye contact to us- as though he doesn’t fear anything, I also put an unlit cigarette in his mouth, to add to the ‘rocky’ and ‘devil may care’ look.

Features- I wanted the front cover to feature a lot of cover lines so I wanted to use a lot of ‘Pull Quotes’ because my main feature will be an interview with the band, so I want direct quotes from the interview to use on the cover of the magazine.
Positioning of conventional information- I wanted the price to be in the top right corner and for the issue number and date to be right in the top right, and in a smaller font, so people know it’s there but it’s not a main focus point.
Colour Scheme- for the colour scheme, I wanted to keep it simple and since the genre of my magazine is rock and the typical connotations of rock are the colours, black, red and white. So I wanted to use these across my main cover, contents page and double page spread.
