Magazine Cover Research

I have begun the initial stages of my post production work for the project. After finishing filming and our first draft of our edit both myself and Cliffords attentions have turned to the post production assignment which involve the creation of a digipack, a advert whether that would be a billboard, magazine front cover etc and a documentary prefably 10 - 15 minutes long highlighting and analyzing using the evaluation questions as a template for the answers and also by the feedback given by other people through social media and questionarre's.

We concluded our filming on the 15th of October, and then instantly proceeding to editing our first draft our video. Both myself and Clifford rotated around the editing suite using final cut pro a upgrade from last years IMOVIE. Whilst we both gave input to the editing and also to the digipacks we both focused on two different things myself which was the advertising and Clifford the questionare. Deligating two seperate roles helps to think more creatively first and then source feedback from one another. So whilst Clifford was busy doing the questionarre I used photoshop to create a front cover to a magazine labelled 'Audiostar Magazine.' The front cover bares the brunt of different media outlets having drawn influences from music magazines covering music such as VIBE, WordUp and NME. Both magazines allowed me to construct a image of what I was going to do in photoshop. Seeing as a magazine cover like NME imbeds so much colour and imagery this is something that I definately wanted to adhere to.
