Article Album Track By Track

1)      This song is the go getter song of the album. I wanted the first song to be able to really get pumped for the rest of the album.

2)      This song means an incredible lot; it was my first single so the first a lot of people heard of me and what got to me to where I am.

3)      This is the song that if you are sort of close to giving up and are tired. If you listen to this song, know there is a way to keep going.

4)      This is such a happy song, its song that you walk down the street listening to thinking ‘today is going to be a good day’.

5)      This song was written and recorded as I was going through heartbreak; this is a song that I think people may be able to relate to the most.

6)      This song was simply to show I will never forget where I came from and what and where put me where I am today.

7)      This is the middle finger up song, what I like to call it. This song is just to stick one finger in the air to those who told you couldn’t.

8)      This is the big base drop song, I wanted one in there so that it wouldn’t be all melodic soft song because I like the other side of music too.

9)      This is the first song I ever wrote and to top it all off was produced by Adam Levine; so I couldn’t leave it off the album.

10)   Finally this song is for you guys, the fans. This is to simply say thank you because I think music speaks a thousand words and that is what you guys deserve and more.

Image Ideas

This post is to give myself and the people that view my blog the sort of image ideas that I based my photoshoot on. There are many different artists and shots I based my model and photoshoot on and these are some of my favourites, As you can see from some of the images above there is a mixture between high and low angle shots, coloured and direct address. After looking at all of these images, I pulled them all together to get an overall idea of the type of images I was going to put into my magazine.

Feedback On My Proposal

I got my parents to give me feedback on my proposal. The reason why I chose to have them give me feedback is because I trust their judgement and know they will be brutally honest with me. I took their criticisms and adapted my proposal to fit in with the improvements and make it as good as I possible.

Cover Lines

This is the word format of what will be on the front cover of my magazine. I chose to have a list of artists name to not make the front cover to crowded but to still give the audience an exclusive insight into what will be in the magazine. There is also 3 other sell lines with a short description about what will be in that specific article and hopefully this will draw the audience in to buy and read the magazine. Due to Phoenix Strong being the main article her name will be significantly bigger than the rest.

Mood Board

This is just like my representation of genre but this is just a few pictures to convey what I think sums up the genre of indie onto a page. It portrays that I have taken into account all aspects of the genre such as clothing, music and setting. This will not only help me in the magazine overall but it helped me to decided how the model should be dressed and what other images I could use and in what other settings.

Contents Page Text

This is the text that would be featured in my contents page. There isn't much text on this page because I think it should be a brief summary of what you can find and where you can find it. This page should be about enticing you into a certain place of the magazine and that is why unlike the article which should be mainly text, this should be the most aesthetically pleasing to the reader.

Proposal

My draft proposal is where I give all my intial ideas about what I want to do for my magazine and why I chose to pick those ideas. I talk about all aspects of my magazine and how it all links together. It is important I justify all my choices so I can show people that I am 100% confident in the choices I have made and the thought process behind them.

Analysing Double Page Spread

This really helped me to understand what to put into my article because when thinking about my magazine this was what I was worried about because I didn't really know what to include in the article itself and what made it look good so by analyzing a magazine article that I have focused my ideas on and I will be adapting articles similar to this one to achieve my perfect idea of an article.
