Moodboard
As the client from my pitch liked the originality of my moodboard, I have chosen to use this for my final moodboard. It has a lot of different design/colour ideas that I will be inspired by.
Final Fonts
Masthead
This will be an obvious case for my masthead to be big and bold since it's the title of my magazine 'Pop-ular Music'. This will further give the magazine a different look since it will bold which will draw potential consumers attentions.
Headlines
This is going to be the font used for my headlines/coverlines. This is because it is similar to the masthead and will give the headlines the stand out required; since they are headlines.
Body Copy
Arial
I will be using this as my body copy font as it mirrors my research and is clear and easy for my target audience to read. It is not too fancy, which won't take away the meaning or the focus from my double page spread.
Colour Scheme
I have chosen the colours blue, dark pink and gold as my main colour pallet. I didn't want to choose stereotypical pinks because I want my magazine to be original and a direct competitor - whilst still appealing to my target audience. The colour gold connotes royalty and wealth, which typically does link to the rap genre, however as my target audience tend to listen to this genre as well I want this colour to stand out more within the Pop genre. It might entice my target audience (fans of other genres) to see this magazine and be intrigued to read its content. It also gives the magazine a USP.
The dark pink and dark blue are more stereotypical colours of Pop, which have been chosen as we don't want to stray too much from the genre and confuse our audience.
Legal & Ethical Issues
legal
- forms
It is important to get forms signed, this is because without the forms being signed we are unable to do any production. Firstly we need the location form to be signed, this is because permission is needed to be allowed to use a certain area, without it we are not allowed to use the location, this is the same for model forms, without the models signing the form we will not be using the models as we are liable for anything that happened to them, therefore without either being signed we will be using a location or a model, which means I will have to make sure that all forms are signed.
- copyright
This is a simple task to complete, however it is crucial it is completed as if we do not copyright the magazine we can competitors using our content with freewill, as well as our own copyrights needs, making sure we aren't infringing on our competitors will come from this, so making sure we can not be liable for copyright is important to do and achieve. we will be creating our own photos and content for the magazine.
- trademarks
This is similar to copyright, however this is specifically for logos, symbols and others, this means that that the magazine has an original logo and title and has not infringed on any legal issues, that can happen, this is important to make sure we do not step on the trademark of competitors and make sure our logo for the magazine is trademarked so competitors can not steal any content from us.
- libel
Libel is when something is written about someone that is false and damages someones reputation, this is not needed and simple to avoid, however making sure everything that is written is acceptable and therefore able to publish, this can also have a negative impact on the magazine and ruin the reputation by defaming someones reputation. we will have an editor reading over the body copies to make everything is appropriate.
ethical
- discrimination
When doing the production no person will be judge differently, with race, gender, age, religion, sexuality or anything else impacting the decision of certain people with certain jobs, this is necessary as it a positive way to deal with this, which will also give the magazine a positive reputation, discrimination is also a legal problem that could also get the magazine in trouble.
- no swearing in the magazine
Making sure the magazine has no swearing in is very important, this is because our target audience is of a young age and with them reading the content of the magazine it would be inappropriate to have swearing in the content, if swearing is included in the magazine then it could have a negative impact on the magazine,
- being environmentally friendly
As the location we are using is the park, making sure that all our litter is put in the bin and not thrown on the ground is important, this is because throwing trash away will help the environment and as well as that give the magazine a good reputation.
