Name ideas, Colour scheme ideas and feature story ideas

I have created a list of name ideas that will be used when coming to the fianl decision on the name on my music magazine. I have created 34 different name to ensure that I have a large range to choose from and I won't not have a name for the magazine.

As well as creating numerous possible name idea for my musis magazine I also thought of some possible feature stories that could be used withing my magazine. I created these by thinking of related events that are happening within the rap industry now and have changed them slightly. I created 30 different once because when it comes to choosing the ones I would like to use on my final magazine I have a range to choose from.

Mise-en-scene location and prop ideas

Costume designs

Here are some costum designs which I have created to fit the male style which would be expected to be seen on a music magazine with the genre of rap. I used the styling of clothing which rappers are currently wearing and this then allowed me to create three different outfits which are all different. My personal favourite from the three above is the third one because it was inspired by Drake who is becoming extremely well know in the music industry now and this is the style of clothing he tend to wear. However all three of the costume ideas that I have created fit to the style of rap and either one of them would fit the theme for my music magazine.  

Above are another three different costume idea but these have been designed for women. I searched current rappers and also pop artists and came up with some costume ideas that would fit in for the theme of my music magazine. My personal favourite from these costume ideas is number 3. I prefare this one because it was inspired by Jhene Akio who is linked to the rap industry as well as pop and it is very different from the usual outfit that a women would normally be seen in. As well as it includes a current rappers clothing line which is where I found the top from Jay-z's line and the signiture flannel tied around the waste sets it off. I also attempted to include some accessories which may also go with all three outfits which I have created such as jewelry and bags

My reader profile

Here is my reader profile which I created for my magazine. This will help me when creating my final magazine as I can decide and understand more clearly which type of target audience I will aim to reach. It also allows people to understand what genre of magazine I am going for and who it will interest.
