DPS

I believe this is a very effective and well presented DPS. You have the title in the top left with two pictures and the rest text. The first picture shows him clearly rapping and this shows what type of music he represents. The second picture shows the Illuminati pose which suggests which type of group he is affiliated with. The layout of each column of writing looks professionally done. Doing my DPS on InDesign allowed me to do this as it shows rulers and columns for me to measure the space in between each column. The actual content of the DPS is a Q&A between me posing as an interviewer and him. This gives the reader an insight to get to know him better.

CONTENTS PAGE

This is a simple but effective contents page. It has pictures of both my models looking out at my readers inspiring them to carry on turning the pages. I have two categories; features and regulars. The features are things that are only specific to this issue of the magazine alone. The regulars are things that occur every month for every issue that the magazine has published. You notice that it is professional in the sense that my page numbers go up quite a bit and a lot of pages throughout my magazine suggest that there is a wide range of content within the product. The black background has carried on like the front cover as it is a house style and constant giving a mysterious edgy feel to this issue of my magazine. The website is again underneath the title reminding the reader that there is content available online. Doing my Contents Page on Photoshop allowed me to have many different layers whether it be picture or text and it allowed me to move each layer to where I wanted it to be.

FRONT COVER


This is my front cover. The main person in my front cover is my model. He is looking straight at the reader which makes him look as if he is trying to connect to them. He is placed just underneath the title pointing up towards the masthead which makes the audience believe that he is now something that is inevitably going to get bigger and better if he is not already there. I have placed cover lines with page numbers underneath which show how big my magazine is and it shows the different people that also feature in my magazine. I have included that it is 'Issue 41' of my magazine along the barcode so people know how long my magazine has been running for and that it is being successful. On top of the barcode is the reasonable price of £1.99 as it is cheap and my audience know they are getting a bargain. I have included something that my readers can win in a separate box so that it catches my readers attention straightaway. I have also included a website so that it looks legitimate and professional. Doing my Front Cover on Photoshop allowed me to have many different layers whether it be picture or text and it allowed me to move each layer to where I wanted it to be.

pictures of my model


























































These are the various pictures i have taken of my main model and one picture of a secondary model i have used. There are some different shot types i have used such as medium close ups, close ups, wide shots, mid shots and so on. The style i am going for is a rap artist with attitude and confidence and i believe he comes across like that through some of my photos. the secondary artist is posing as someone else who is going to feature in my magazine.
