On week 1 I completed my analysis of 5 front covers, contents pages and double-page spreads. I looked at two NME magazines and three Kerrang magazines eventually deciding on basing my magazine on the style of Kerrang with a slight NME influence. I made this decision whilst carrying out my analysis. I found this analysis hard but interesting and learnt a lot about the codes and conventions that I need to follow to make my magazine look professional and to make it suit the genre that I am aiming for. This week I also completed my initial ideas which showed me that there was more to think about than I had first thought. It showed me that every detail needs to be carefully considered to make the magazine look like an actual magazine. I also realised that the colour scheme had to be thought about and that once all my ideas were on paper, it was easier to decide on what direction to go in regarding even the minor details.
