Front Cover Image for my Music Magazine
For my front cover image, I am using a medium close-up shot of a model posing with some sort or music representor e.g a guitar, drums or a microphone etc... hopefully capturing their individual personality.
This image, of the 'Cheryl Cole' is perfect example of the image layout I will use for my magazine front cover.
I have realised that Q magazine is probably the main example of a magazine which matches the same conventions and genre of music of my magazine. So i am going to analyse a front cover from this Q issue.
