Week beginning 27/01/2014

(I'm putting up my progress today as I didn't have access to my work over the weekend to upload.)

I've been adding to the front page that I created last week. 
I've added another article to the left of the magazine and chose a different font. Not including the title, there should be just 2 fonts, which I've kept in mind.


I've used fonts from the internet rather than the ones provided on Photoshop because they stand out more, and the front page is supposed to stand out from the other magazines on the shelf.

I've picked faults in the front page as the puffs running down the left side of the page are too big and are almost the same size as the article. So to improve this I may need to make it smaller. 

I also made the main feature of Sabrina the largest piece of text apart from the masthead as is the norm. But I've slanted it to make it a little bit different, in accordance to the indie style of the magazine.

I've also encountered the problem of space, as the central image is rather large, trying to fit everything around is proving difficult. In order to include more articles in the magazine, I might need to make the article on the right side smaller. In other music magazines the articles are actually quite small, but most of those that I've looked at are quite mainstream and as this is an indie magazine I might decide to have it break the norms and conventions of a music magazine to make it a little bit different.
