Analysing Magazine covers

We have been analysing music magazine covers of different genres to gain a deeper understanding into the conventions of the covers. Also it gave me a chance to practice looking into the denotationas and connotations of the text/images on them. I analysed nme, vibe, Complex and Rolling Stone magazines, looking into Complex and Vibe magazine most importantly as they are the similar genre to the magazine I will be creating myself. I really enjoyed this part of the coursework as i want to work in magazine design when im older, and i have always had an eye for magazine design . ;)

My feelings :S

I am looking forward to creating and designing the layouts for my magazine, but i am worried about my organisational skills . I hope I will overcome this!

My first Blog :)

We have been asked to start using a blog to post our planning for our media music magazine. We have been asked to collect music magazines to start recognising the conventions.
