My music magazine research- colour schemes
My research of Billboard magazine has shown that a lot of plain and basic colours are used as the background however there are splashes of colour that are used to catch the readers attention such as pink, yellow and blue. These are the colour schemes that I am going to use.

House Style- Billboard front cover research
House Style is something that all magazines use to help the reader recognise the magazine straight away by using a similar layout and structure. This includes the masthead, the colours, the location of the main image and the anchorage text. It is an effective way of producing a magazine. I have noticed that Billboard changes the location of its masthead. It is normally on the side however for some special edition issues they put it on the left hand side. This shows a variety and this is something I will consider when designing my own music magazine.

School magazine evaluation questions
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of school magazines?
My magazine looks like what a
school magazine should, it has an image relevant to school, cover lines which
are relevant and a title which is clear what the magazine includes. School
magazines are supposed to be informative but also include images and text which
are interesting to the age group of the reader and this is what my magazine includes. The image is general to the school as it is of students who have just received their exam results infront of the school building which is easily recognisable by all students who attend Plantsbrook School.

I have learnt how to create a
front cover using fireworks which is new to me and something I’ve not used before. Fireworks has allowed me to add text and images to create a magazine and to use the different tolls that fireworks has. I have found this valuable as it has given me good experience about how to
create a new magazine for the rest of the course. I have also learnt how to use
cooltext and how to add it onto my magazine on fireworks and it will also help with many topics throughout media when choosing a
title to put on a piece of work or another magazine.
