2nd Draft...

 

From looking at other pop magazines they are very cluttered and therefore I will need to brain storm more ideas to appear on my front cover. Also I will need to add pictures to make it look more interesting.

 

 This is my first attempt of my front cover. I am happy with the layout so far and I like the way the colours match. I will need to add more coverlines and pictures giving it more of a pop magazine look.

DOUBLE PAGE ARTICLE

 

 After finishing their SOLD OUT arena tour in the US, girl bad ‘Sugar Spice’ are now ready to carry on with their European tour. We caught up with them backstage at the o2 and asked them a few popular  questions sent in from fans.

 

What do enjoy most about being on tour?

 

We have loads of fun on tour; we mostly enjoy seeing our fans happy. Although Jess and I find it very tiring every bit of it is definitely worth it it. Although our timetable is very tight we still find the  time to have a laugh and enjoy ourselves.

 

Do you enjoy performing new songs or old songs on tour?

We enjoy performing all songs from both our albums, but we especially enjoy performing songs from when we first started up as a band. Our song ‘Love me’ which was our first number one is always every emotional to perform.

 

How did you feel when your album went to number 1 in America?

We were over the moon when we went to number in the US! Megan and I were very surprised as we are an English band, we didn't realize how big we would be in the US. We spent the night with friends and family.

 

What do you do in your free time?

We very rarely have any free time so when we do we make the most out of it; we spend time with family and friends. We enjoy going shopping, cinema and just chilling.

 

 

What artists do you look up to?

We look up to artists such as Little Mix, who were the first band to win the xfactor. Our style of music is similar to their's. We also like the image Jessie J portrays, she produces relevant music which can be listened to by all genders.

 

What artists would you want to collaborate with in the future?

We are currently working with Tinie Tempah on his new album which will be out in the summer. Jess and I have always been fond of Pixie Lott and would love to perform a song with her. 

 

What does the future hold for sugar spice? 

We hope to carry on producing music which our fans love.

These are the pictures I managed to take for my photoshot. Please comment below which ones you like best, and which one I should use for my front cover?

 

 

PHOTOSHOT PLAN

When planning my photoshot I will have to consider:

• Lighting
• Props
• Costumes 
• Setting
• Camera angles

Lighting- My location is indoors, so the lighting will most properly be very natural. Once I have taken my shots I will need to consider using Photoshop to edit them, making them look brighter and more focused. 

Props- My photoshoot for my front cover will be kept very simple with the use of no props, I feel by using no props it will be more effective to the target audience. However for my double page spread I will be using props for example a microphone and a guitar. 

Costumes- In the photoshoot the model artists will be wearing modern  up-to-date clothing. The models will be dressed appropriately as they are acting as role models to the target audience. The model will have a very natural look. 

Setting- The photos taken for my front cover will be taken on a white background, I have decided a white background so the model can stand out more, as they are the main focus. The photos used for my double page spread have been taken in New York City. 

Camera Angles- The photos taken for my front cover will be close ups of the model showing face expressions making it more appealing to the target audience. However for my double page spread long shots and mid shots will be used. There will also be a few establishing shots of New York City. 

 

PHOTOSHOOT IDEAS

Having just recently visited New York City with the school, I took the opportunity to take pictures and find a way to put them in my music magazine. I will most probably be using these pictures for my double page spread and contents page.
