Flat Plan(s)

Flat Plan (first 23 paged layout)

 

Flat Plan (last 21 paged layout)

The above scanned documents are brief idea of the entire magazine layout from cover to cover, giving a shallow look into how the magazine would go through story boarding and production. Down below, i will go through some details concerning the masthead designs, as this is probably the most important feature on the front cover, other than the artist. Mastheads must be eye catching and Bold, be able to stand out on the Page and grab the readers attention instantly; but must also maintain a certain subtlety about itself as if to say it doesn't want to "scare" or "put off" the reader completely because its right in the face of the reader. Going through some drafted designs, i will explain why i chose my final Masthead above most and will leave descriptions in the captions below the print screened image of why the displayed mastheads below where good enough, but presented some flaws.

 

 





 

 







This being the 1st idea supporting the "un-cluttered" straight forward look
it helps emphasise the point that my media product is not to flashy and off
putting but rather straight-to-the-point readership which can attract
plausible attention from the right crowd.

This being the 2nd idea i formed, it doesn't really support the previous point
about maintaining the "un-cluttered" look, this masthead design is more
"in-your-face" and is set to completely grab the readers attention as soon
as the magazine is picked up, Letters are arranged in a neat way, in an
aerial standardised font, supporting its overall delivery of "simplicity".

This being my 3rd and final idea of my mast head, shows a slight intersection
between the last two ideas. As it is not too flashy but still maintaining a
unconventional edge due to its positioning in the top right hand corner of
the page, but this positioning has given way for the main focus to be on
the pictured artist that would be in thee middle of thee page. I chose this idea
because it paved way to a better looking front cover, which seemed
attractive and more economically beneficial once I surveyed this idea.
