I originally sketched the below magazine cover for my music video. When drawing/sketching it i decided i would continue to use the colour scheme similar to my film and digi pack itself. I also planned to use the same font, in this way viewers and audiences can relate each advert/video/cd cover to each other. I also made sure to keep a small hint of what may be involved in the music video. As an example, to the left of my sketch you can see a hand holding something, this informs viewers/readers that the artist has a form of conceptual idea within the music video, however it doesn't reveal too much information. In addition, i have also sustained the circle logo (in the top right) with the artists name inside. This can also be seen on the CD cover itself.
Below can be seen a general step by step of how i created my magazine cover on Adobe Photoshop. Rather than starting with a "fresh canvas" i decided to develop & Minipulate my current DigiPack Cd Cover into a magazine cover. Doing this allows me to alter yet remain the same theme consistantly, throughout all my producs of the music video.
Below is my final Magazine cover advertising the release date of "James Blake's" "The Wilhelm Scream" album. I used a similar technique to Michael Jacksons "This Is It" advert. This "technique" is rather cleverly to keep a sleek & simple approach to the design (assuming the audience already know who the artist is). In this way i can keep an aesthetically pleasing advert with sufficient information (release date etc) without overloading text on the page.
