Magazine Website.

By using 123REG.COM I found that if my magazine was a real I could actually use the website domain www.popmag.co.uk as its available to use.

Front Cover.

Making of the magazine front cover.

Making the plug for the front cover:

Making the front cover:

I Thought that the photograph I was originally using at the bottom would be good as my main image however i quickly changed my mind and retook my photographs.

Ive changed the picture to light pink as it looks more girly, attracting my intended audience and it also helps it look less plain.

I edited her eyes, teeth and hair to make her look better and make the picture near the bottom smaller as I think this makes her look much better.

Photographs

Some of the photographs I have taken:

google mock ups

This is my favourite mock up design and is the one i'm going to base my actual magazine on, this is because I think that it looks the most visually attractive, and it looks like the one I, personally, would be most likely to purchase myself. Although i have used the same colour schemes throughout them all i think that the colours look best in this order and the content is the best.

Masthead Design Ideas

I created a few masthead designs but ruled them all out for being either too plain or thinking they wouldn't stand out well enough on the photographs. So i decided to create another masthead idea.

This was the masthead I designed last, I had to think about the colours being bright so that it would appeal to a pop magazine but it also needing to stand out, I really like the outcome.

The Name Of My Magazine.

Out of all of my ideas I decided to use POP as my magazine name, I decided to use this because its short, snappy and to the point. Everyone could really easily tell what the magazine is about whereas if i used the name Glam buyers may think that its about fashion.
