Week Two Diary Entry

Week two

Date- 8^th February – 15^th February

This week I looked into the genre of music I wanted to focus on for my magazine. I looked at magazines like NME, Kerrang and Mojo but they were not the kind of magazines I wanted to do so I looked at magazines such as Q and top of the pops, which I liked a lot better. As I then had a more clear idea of what genre I wanted to do I started to analyse the codes and conventions of pop music magazines, so I started to analyse front covers, contents pages and double page spreads of music magazines I looked at the colour schemes, the pictures, the fonts, the layout and the content of the magazines, and I analysed 5 front covers, 5 contents pages and 5 double page spreads for pop genre music magazines.
