Chosen Font

This is the font i chose for my magazine that will be used throughout.

Possible Advert's

This was my first Advert i made for a Electric Guitar.
I used bright Bold fonts coloured red to stand out, and grab the readers attention.

I then changed it to advertise Headphones instead of a Guitar because Guitars are rock and roll and so shouldnt be in a hip-hop/rnb magazine so i advertised headphones which are more related to Hip-hop/rnb.

I looked at usual adverts in hip-hop/RnB magazines and they genericaly have beautiful models wearing or showing the product, which i have done i then used bright colours and a bold font to grab the readers attention. I then used the colour green for the price as green is ascoiated with money.

I also used an artist 'GG' that is mentioned in my magazine to advertise it so that the reader may want to buy it because GG has endorsed it.

Experimentation with Editing

These are pictures i took of myself and then edited them to see different effects and then choose how i could use them in my magazine.

This is a Cinematic effect, as if it is in the cinema.

This is a black and white effect.

Album Covers

These is my album covers i had to make for my article in my magazine. All these articles are going to be put on my article "The top 5 new artists of '09". I edited all my pictures on picnik.com. This will fit into a normal magazine as they have reviews and news of new artists and their albums.
This is my album for the fictional duo Azzamo. As it is an RnB album i made it look very inresting with the picture edited. I planned to call it 'Glass Windows' so i took a picture of the model with some glass windows in the background. I didnt manipulate this image except add text to it as the picture is exactly what i intended it to be.
This is the fictional album of Saff, I did not edit the picture as i planned the albums name to be 'white black' so i took a picture of her against a half white and black background. This is also a raw image apart from the text.

This is another fictional RnB singer called Jessikahhh. i made the picture black and white except for her haire and eyes which are peircing red. I planned to call the album 'Back to the joint' as if she went into prison and came out but is now back in, so i took a picture to look as if she was in jail behind some bars.

This is the fictional album for GG an RnB singer called 'Flash' so i decided to make the album look as if its moving but her face is still, and have the font in a font typical to RnB. I used a application on picnik to make it focus on the models face.

This is the fictional album for Hip-hop artist Caesar i took a picture of the model singing into a mic just like the ones found in music studio's to make it look authentic. i darkened the edges and boosted the colour of the very handsome model.

Mood Board

This is my First Mood where i found pictures of Artsts famous for their RnB and Hip-Hop and put them together.

This is my second Mood board i got rid of some of the artists and added more hip hop and rnb themes.

This is my second Mood board i got rid of more artists and started to add more items associated wih hip hop and rnb, such as headphones, microphone, font, boombox.
This is my fourth Mood board i got rid of some of the items related to hip hop and rnb. I enlarged one of the theme pictures for hip hop and used it as my background.

This is my fifth Mood board i got added some of the items related to hip-hop and rnb. i also used another one of the hp hop themed pctures for the background.
