First Draft (Drawings)

The pictures below show my first draft (drawing). This is what i wanted my magazine to look like at first, but since drawing this, some of the ideas have been changed or not been used.



On my front cover (Top Image) i got rid off the 'Inside' banner, as i realised it would take up too much space and would cover most of the front cover image. Also the side images weren't used as again, same as the banner, it would have taken up too much space and covered up the image. I did keep the name of my magazine the same, 'Voice', as i thought it was relevant to the type of magazine i was making.

Most of the 'double page spread' ideas were removed because it didn't look very professional when all put together, so i kept it simple in my final draft, which will be uploaded soon.

Mood Board


The picture above shows the mood board i created in pre-production of my magazine. It basically shows the colours and fonts i might have chosen for my magazines front cover, contents page and double-page spread. It gave me a clearer idea on what i should focus on when designing my magazine, like the colour, fonts, advertisements, puffs, plugs etc. It's ideal to create a mood board because its where you can put all your ideas together and then decide on what your going to do (Scheme wise).
