Ideas

Costume Ideas


For the costumes I will put my artist in the colour black as during my research I noticed that the artist is typically in either a black or white costume and is simple. Therefore I wanted to follow this. Below are some image examples of magazine cover artist costumes. And drawings of costume ideas. For the double page spread my artist will be wearing a more casual outfit as this will represent her personality whereas the front cover's costume will represent the magazine. My artist will wear rip jeans and a plain top for the double page spread as this will represent her personality.



     


I will not be using any props for my magazine cover and it will take away attention from the artist.

Font style research

Font Style 



From looking at pop music magazines they all have a very simple font and are typically in either black, white or pink. Fonts in pink target audience would be 13-16 years old and the white and black font, that target audience would be 16- 19 years old. The pink font have younger artists on their covers, whereas the black and white font have older artists on the front cover. This means that for my magazine I will use a simple font, in a dark and simple font as this is a typical convention of a pop magazine for the target audience of 16-19.



 I chose to look at different simple fonts, too see which one would fit my genre and target audience best. I decided that no. 5 would be the best font as it is simple and a thicker and would look best.
