Introduction to NEA Brief
      We have been assigned to design and create a music magazine front cover and a double page spread for 14-18 year old. I will have a clear understanding of how to create a music front cover as i enjoy music which is helpful to understand 14-16 year old. When I am working on this magazine I am hoping to improve my photo shop skills as it was very hard  I am excited to spend a big amount of time trying to create my magazine because I really enjoyed making my prelim magazine as it helped me improve my media skills. I am also looking forward to work with teenagers as my favourite part of making the magazines .  

       I am not entirely sure of what genre I want my music magazine to be due to the fact that I enjoy almost all genres, however, I am leaning towards a style similar to Billboard Magazine. I will aim to put more time outside of lessons during the production of my magazine as I think it will give me more opportunities to better my product. . I am also eager to identify some new conventions as we are studying music magazines and it is different to what I have done in my prelim which was related more to fashion. I am hoping to get better at firstly my Photoshop skills in order to  produce a magazine that it incredibly similar to an actual music magazine also I would hope to be able to make my descriptions and research into other magazines and how they can help build my own.

TYPHOGRAPHY MOODBOARD

The fonts on these mood boards all have the use of similar colours such as black, white or red. In my opinion, I see that the ‘vibe’ stands out for me as its black and bold. Its simple and easy to understand. Most of the mastheads are in caps to show the seriousness of the magazine’s music genre. A masthead that really stands out with the use of different colours is Billboard. In my opinion, i think that its probably the best one of all of them. The use of these colours can show that billboard has a younger target audience and since it is different to the rock or hip hop masthead it may be targeted to audiences who prefer to listen to pop or other. Rock or hip hop magazines are written in bold and have really bright or dark colours to show that their music is daring and rebellious. Some mastheads have a coloured background which relates to their music genre. Overall we can say those music magazine mastheads represents the genre of the magazine.
