Magazine Research And Planning 2



  • Decide on a suitable title for your magazine. It needs to be one that is genre appropriate. This is a list of music magazine names I came up with for an AS task.
  • Pick the fonts you want to use in your magazine.
  • Choose a colour palette.
  • Decide who your cover star will be or decide what your cover image will be.
  • Plan the clothes, make up and mise en scene of your photos.
  • Take photos at home or prepare to take them in lessons.
  • Begin to draft your magazine cover and contents page. You can do this initially without images. Look at your research examples for help and idea with layouts.
