Another Photoshoot

During the half-term week I have been gathering pictures I can use on my contents page. I realised I would probably need to do another photoshoot with a girl as my previous two photoshoots are with boys and I want to attract both a male and female audience. It was sort of last minute but I organised a photoshoot with a girl yesterday and used a white sheet as the back drop for the pictures. I dressed her in tights, shorts and we swapped various different tops. One of them being a Ramones one. I wanted to give her a young, fresh look about her and the Ramones t-shirt showed she wasn't just into pop music. I got her to do lots of different poses including pushing her hair up, sitting on the floor with crossed legs and hands on hips. I'm pleased with the outcome of the photoshoot.

Results of Contents Page Research

After asking 12 people their opinion on which style of contents page would best suit my magazine according to my cover, 5 people chose NME, 5 people chose Q and 2 people chose Kerrang! So therefore I am going to structure my contents page in the style of both NME and Q.

Contents Page Research

I am currently piecing together different elements of my contents page and deciding on the different articles that will be included in my magazine. I have decided to print off a contents page from 3 different magazines that would be my main competition in the market: Q, NME and Kerrang! I have then printed off my final front cover and I am going to ask a selection of people which contents style they think matches my front cover the most. I will then use this as a template for my own contents page.

This is my finished cover.

Results of Cover 1 & Cover 2

Yesterday I asked 10 boys and 10 girls if they preferred the cover which used the pink/red colour or the one with the blue. To my surprise, 7 boys chose the pink and 3 chose blue. I thought most males wouldn't pick pink because it is seen as quite a feminine colour but this was not the case. All of the girls also picked pink and so this is the colour of cover I will use as my final piece as it will appeal to both genders which is what I wanted to achieve.
