Pictures

These are some of the picture ideas that I will use in my magazine.

Picture Ideas

These are some examples of real images that can give me some inspiration on how I will take my pictures, all the people that are involved in the images are all from an asian background so this will give some ideas on what they should pose like.

Photo shoot planning

To take my pictures I need to plan so that I am ready on the day to take the pictures. When planning my pictures I need to think about many different things, these are when, who, the costume, the pose, location, set up time, mise en scene and the camera angle, this is so that when I take the pictures it will not be that time consuming and I will be fully prepared.

Mood board

My mood board distinguishes some ideas that could go in my magazine, what can be featured on the front cover, contents page and double spread. On my mood board I have put images of things that link to bhangra music and it's culture.

What is Bhangra music?

Bhangra music came from Punjab in India. Traditionally a good harvest used to be celebrated by bhangra music (singing, dhol playing and dancing). Bhangra lyrics are usually about love, drinking, relationships and money. Bhangra is now used to describe a high-energy style of dance music developed by young Asians and performed at weddings, parties and clubs. The UK has the largest Bhangra industry followed by Canada.

In the market at the moment the bhangra industry is not very large, there is no music magazine that promotes bhangra music, the promotion for this type of music is very minimum so there will be a large audience for my music magazine, there are a lot of people that would want to buy the music magazine as there is a large audience of people that are interested in this type of music (shown in the results that I have collected from my questionnaire).

Mastheads

These are some more masthead ideas, I have used resources from the internet to get some more fonts that will make the mastheads more attractive and stand out. I have used the name 'Friction' a lot as this is the name that people preferred when asking them in my questionnaire. I have made the mastheads colourful and bold so that they stand out from the rest of the front cover.
