My main inspirations for this magazine and especially my main article that I am doing now have came from http://www.kerrang.com/ I used this website mainly for the development of my contents page. I also used http://www.mojo4music.com/blog/ for some extra inspirations for my front cover and to adapt my contents.

This is the very first draft of my main article, it is cheap and needs alot of work

This could be a possible photo for my main article, however it is too out of focus and the shot is not right as my models eyes do not look open but more a glare at the camera, the lighting in alot of my shots has caused problems as one side of my face has light across it making me look wrong.

I am doing preparations for my main article. I am thinking of using this photo for my main article, it is a good medium long shot, unlike most photos it is not in a normal pose but more like they are just walking past, it is more natural and I can use it for my story. However I am not sure as it is a bit blurred and out of focus so it all depends how it will look in my article.

I am going to start to work on my main article very soon, it will be on my main story about my band 'The Heartbreakers' and their sudden fame and success. I will be using my draught of the article to type it up, although some things might be changed inorder to make it alot better.

I had originally planned to use this pic for my front cover, however it would have made it too cramped and it would have looked really bad. The faces also look wrong and too grainy for the picture, the lighting also makes my face look half bright and half dark.

I did not use this in my magazine, however I did consider it to be used for my contents page. It is a medium close up shot of one of my models. I did not use it as the colour make it look more like a cartoon, and grainy and his look on his face is not right for what I needed.

I was thinking of using this picture for my front cover however it is too much of a pose, unlike the picture I used for my cover it just does not seem to work, the light that shines on my forehead makes it look very strange and not good for my cover. I also found out that when I cut it out it was too big for my front so when I reduced the size the resolution was completely wrong and the picture was too blurred

I was also thinking of using this photo however the light on my models face made his face look deformed and if I had of used it It would have been completely out of focus on that side. His face is also to happy/loving and we look to weird on this one. I t could have been used for my contents but I feel it just does not look right

This picture would have been used for my front cover exept my model did not realise it was taking the picture and so his face is completely wrong and it would just have looked weird, although my natural pose on this made it seem a good contender had his face had of been more natural I probably would have used it
