Initial Ideas Statement



I went through multiple ideas for the production of my magazine. I looked through multiple magazines online trying to give me ideas. I first came up with the idea of doing a magazine based on the 'house' genre of music but couldn't think of a way to link this in with my photos and also did not know much about the house genre of music at the time.

I then came up with the idea of doing a magazine on the rap genre. I drew out multiple drafts of what my front cover would look like and liked the idea. Whilst making the front cover in one of my media lessons. I went on to Capital FM and saw the idea of doing a magazine not on a genre but rather a culture of chart music whilst mixing indie in to the magazine in a way. Luckily I had not come far in the production of my Rap magazine and could use most of the features I had already added to my front cover.

However, once i got to my DPS, I struggled a lot on the design when. I could not come up with a layout for it. I began to google samples of Double Page Spreads and found a DPS on Wiz Khalifa in which the design really attracted me to it. So I used the DPS as a template for my magazines Double Page Spread.

Lucky I had no other struggles throughout the production of my magazine after I had come up with the layout of my DPS.
