Notes on music magazine covers

MUSIC MAGAZINE COVERS
The ImageIf there is a person/ group on the cover, what do they represent?
Are they a stereotype
How has this stereotype been constructed? (posed carefully; props, special effects etc)


The Gaze The Gaze refers to the direction in which the person on the cover is looking
Are they looking straight at the audience?

Are they smiling- enticing the reader in?
Do they look friendly or cool?

Do they look seductive?

Representation is key!!
Magazine is going to include one or more people, no image is going to contain no more than five models.

-Explain what kind of music magazine you hope to create by focusins on genre and style
-Explain the audience thaty you are trying to target
-Give a brief overview of the contene of your magazine

-Describe the tone and attitude of your magazine
-Explain the role that you think your magazine will play in the lives of its readers
