Difference between the first and second draft

Music magazine front cover

• My first front cover needed many improvements such as:

• A consistent background which wasn’t faded, faded backgrounds are not really a convention of music magazines.

• Removing the colour green as music magazines tend to use yellow and red more.

• The front cover was too structured meaning it wasn’t suitable for teenagers and older.

• The cover image needed more conventions of Hip Hop magazines e.g. sunglasses.

• It also needed more modern forms of convergences such as a Code which you can scan with your smart phone

First Draft

Second Draft

I have changed the colour yellow and kept some of the writing white as these are conventions of music magazines

I have used skylines to make the names of other artists stand out

I have used another cover image with him facing the other way and with sunglasses

I have added a code which can be scanned with a smartphone and a website underneath

An ID and a username has been added

Instead of a faded background I have used a grey consistent one which contrasts more with the background

The second draft is less structured
