mood board and sketches

Moodboard One
This Moodboard gives the idea of the kind of colour schemes and
dynamics I will use for my own Magazine
Cover, Contents Page and Double Page
Spread.
I want to use colours that really stand out
and look aesthetically pleasing to the eye and
I like the idea of incorporating ‘Cute
Things’ and Alternative styles into my
magazine as well as things that may be
considered childish and young such a Lollipops, Bubblegum and plastic
jewellery.
Moodboard Two
This Moodboard shows the kind of Magazine House
Style that I want for my own Magazine, Contents Page and
Double page spread.
As can be seen, I want an alternative
style with eye-catching fonts and graphics. I would
also like my magazine to portray
a style which is unusual and of a specialist genre.
Moodboard Three
This Moodboard gives examples of the kinds of Photos and Photo shoots I
want in my Magazine Cover,
Contents Page and Double Page
Spread.
As can be seen, I favour the very
simple but colourful style that these
photos incorporate.I think the use of simple but bright colours creates a
‘funky’ and alternative style
which is what I am going for.

This is my first sketch. The main article and image shall be an a fictional band called ‘The Insatiable Cupcakes’ (Name changed after sketch hence why they’re called ‘Sunshine
Domain’). I am trying to keep the house style alternative and youthful with the use of colour and font. I want the cover to
be very simple, much like ‘Love’ Magazine.
I am also using the names of very unusual ‘non-mainstream’
bands to keep with the alternative house style.

The second sketch design is a little more dynamic and with a
different use of colour. This time, I have the main image
models posing behind a poster. I did this because
many magazine covers would not have this kind of posing
on their covers and this shows that my magazine is very
different.Once again, I have gone with
the same cover lines and main images to keep with the
alternative, simple house style.

The third sketch is very different to the otherswith the layout of the
main image and articles. I tried placing the main image very
low down on the cover as it’s visually different
and interesting and would catch the eye. I also added a skyline to add some more pulls and articles, keeping once more with the
same fonts and articles to maintain the
house style.
