 Layouts:

Since my pitch, I have further developed my layout plans for the content within Grimed Out Magazine. As the client suggested a more organised and easier-to-follow leading, I edited the format of my initial design ideas.
I have also included a wider range of colours in my new designs, to create a more eye-catching appearance.

Colour Wheel:

 Below are colour wheels presenting the colour scheme that I intend Grimed Out Magazine to consist of:
(These colour wheels were found on Google Images)

I have selected grey & neutral colours to be used throughout Grimed Out Magazine as I want the magazine to follow an edgy, moody theme. Although I want there to be a minimalistic and simple colour scheme, I also want to include hints of colours to prevent the magazine from looking dull or boring. This will help create a more exciting and up-beat theme, which will contrast well on the darker, neutral tones.

Below are colour wheels that include colours that I want to be hinted throughout the magazine:

Fonts:

Below are the fonts that have been selected for the content throughout Grimed Out Magazine.


I have selected 'Andale Mono' to be used for sub-headings and various written content throughout the magazine. I have chosen this font as it is clean and simplistic, making it easy to follow, as well as creating a modern appearance throughout Grimed Out Magazine. 
I have selected 'Spray.Me' to be the font used for titles and the masthead on Grimed Out Magazine. I chosen this font for these purposes as it is strong and bold, creating an eye-catching appearance. It also looks like spray paint, which will hopefully be appealing to younger ages within the demographic for Grimed Out Magazine. 


 Legal & Ethical Issues:

In order to use someones property, photos or content that includes any information about them, I will need to seek permission from the individual, and ensure that proof of consent is documented.

This is why I have created permission forms as they clearly outline the intentions that Grimed Out Magazine have regarding the individual signing it. Forms are also proof of consent that can be used if there are any concerns or implications later on.

Presentation: Media pitch - Grimed Out Magazine from tahlialorenz Pitch: Questions: Below are the responses to the questions that I was asked during my pitch.

In your plan, would you want to grow your demographic beyond 20 year olds? As grime is listened to by a wide age range, we would definitely consider having a secondary target audience that we ...

Creating Production Materials

Image
LO3 (Unit 3) - Be able to create production materials for an original media product to a client brief. (P4:U3, M3:U3) For the production of my magazine, I took a series of original photographs on a Canon DSLR camera. Two of these images, that I believe to be the best shots, will be edited and used for my double page spread and front cover in Grimed Out Magazine. Image 1: Type: Medium-long shot This is the image that I have selected for my front cover. I chose this photo for my front cover due to the many features it includes. For example, there is a vibrant and eye-catching background consisting of graffiti. The justification for this is that it will fit well with the theme of Grimed Out Magazine as the logo looks like spray-painted graffiti, and is also photographed in an urban area, that tends to attract ages between 16-20 (this is also the age demographic for Grimed Out Magazine). Image 2: Type: Medium-close shot For my double page spread, I ...
