Photo shoot

These are some of the images i took on my first photo shoot of my friend at his house i got him to do numerous poses and movements for me to take of him. I asked him to do what he would normally to in a mosh pit because he is a heavy metal listerner himself. with all the images it gave me a good selection to choose from for my front cover.

Front cover mock

This is a mock up of my front cover, i will have my friend on the front cover doing a mosh dance to give the feel of a heavy metal magazine. On the front cover it will tell the readers what is in the magazine and any aditions e.g. what they can win like a signed guitar. The background will be something differnt adding and blending dark shadfes of colour to add a dark and rock effect the the front cover.

ipc media research

IPC media was formed in 1968 exspanding from the origanal ipc company which was formed in 1799. Now IPC Media produces over 60 iconic media brands, with print alone reaching almost two thirds of UK women and 42% of UK men – almost 26 million UK adults – while there websites collectively reach over 20 million users every month (Omniture). IPC's diverse print and digital portfolio offers something for everyone, with a focus on three core audiences: men, mass market women and upmarket women. IPC Media has commissioned “MAGs”, a new research study exploring the behaviours, attitudes and aspirations of young men (aged 19-29 with no kids). The project brings to light surprising and unexpected aspects of the modern male psyche, dispelling generalisations of one-dimensional, lager swilling 'lads' with little on the brain.

step 10- was info created then choose image and put info to it along with sub headings and additional content
step 11- upload all files and images to blogger to show

target audience

my target audience are normally age 17over because its  a very small music base not alot of people listen to it, it is known to be distruptive music so people dont really listen to it and not many people like it. The people who listen may have stumpled across it and liked it so continued listening to it, others may have been shown it by others. Any ordanery person would listen to it but the stero typical mosher would be a goth who doesnt really interact with other people and going to listen to heavy metal would be there way of letting themselves go. so my audience will wamt to know when gigs and events are on so they can join in and be a differnent person to who they are and just let go, this is why the magazine would sell alot because they need to get in contact with the rest of the heavy metal community.

mood board 2

mood board

 This magazine is very striking to me even tho it is not the same genere as i am going for i still think it is a powerful image and that i could do a close up like this with similar hand jesters.

 This also i belive is powerful image that works well, that fact that the person is doing something seen as bad makes it stand out because people look for the uncommon parts to magazines to make it stand out and because of the guy smoking a cigarette makes the customers take more intrest.
This is totally in a different direction to my genere i am approuching put this images appeasls to me in being simple but very effective, having white on black works well. if i can give my work a contrast it will be much more effective.
