Analysing Music Magazines

Q Music Magazine

By the large bold text and the colours on this front cover it already becomes relatively obvious what the genre of magazine is. This magazine strikes me as an Indie/Rock magazine, the names of the Bands/Artist help to inforce this opinion. The main image consists of a young man, possibly in his late twenties that despite wearing a suit still manages to look scruffy. Importantly the barcode is in a relatively inconspicous area of the magazine and so it doesn't take up valuable space of the A4 sized front cover.   


Update

So far I have found that planning my my music video has taken the most amount of time. I have a good idea of what I want to do but planning every second of the video has proved time consuming and difficult. I have made several story boards, most have been drafts however i am almost finished my planning now and will be going out to film very soon. My music video will basically consist of a dancing crocodile brightening up people's lives and making them feel happy. I have planned on using a great variety of different shots ranging from high to low angle and from panning to close up. So far I have greatly enjoyed this years A2 media project and believe by the end I hope I shall feel enriched and far more knowledgable over many areas of the Media subject.
