After looking at the various codes and conventions of music magazine I decided on a suitable layout for my front cover, contents page and double page spread

I had originally planned to create a music magazine from the indie genre but changed it to the reggae genre as I felt there was a gap in the market for this type of music magazine.

I then researched images more specific to the reggae genre which is what I decided for the genre of my magazine.This helped me because I could envision what the model for my magazine would wear by using inspiration from current reggae magazines.

I made a plan of who, what and where my pictures would be taken for my music magazine.

After looking at multiple music magazines, I planned my final layout for the front page, content page and double page spread of my reggae music magazine.
