For my music magazine i used examples and ideas from some well known rock magazines seeing i was going to use rock as my theme i wanted to see what was appropriate for convensional and typical rock magazine. I took parts of Kerrang, nme and rock sound magazine and combined it to create my own magazine with a twist for the front cover i used one main image to show that my magazine is based on this one image(band).
i also chose 3 main colours for my magazine which are Grey, Red and Black, i applied this colour scheme through out all of my pages which are my Front Cover, Contents Page and my Double Page Spread.
This was applied to make it conventional such as Kerrang, NME and Rock Sound.

these are a couple of images i put into my magazine.
