My preliminary is a magazine called 'The latest' and is for my sixth form college. I have tried to use realistic stories to make it look as real as possible. The front cover is a picture of my friend and follows the same house style throughout: the picture is dark and grungey, as is the main cover line. However, my other cover lines have been written in bright colours to make the cover look more interesting. It fits into a sort of emo genre, however it reaches out to the appropriate teenage audience as the picture is of a teenager and the random bright colours fit teenage interests as it uses many different colours. The picture fits an emo audience, but i used this as the majority of students at my college could be branded as 'emo' and so my magazine suits the majority audience at my college. I have tried to match the layout to the more popular magazines that you would see in your local magazine. The closer I matched the layout to a music magazine, the more it would help me to create my music magazine cover. However, doing this task has proved to me how difficult a professional looking magazine cover is to make and I know that I will have to work a lot harder in order to create a successful music magazine.
