Rock/Metal Magazine Ideas on Prezi

I have used many tools to make her completion look better. firstly I used the clone tool to get rid of her imperfections such as her spots, I did this by cloning a piece of her skin that was clear and pasting it over her spots and freckles. Secondly I cut out her skin twice on two separate layers and made one lighter and slightly transparent and the other darker, this creates a more even and lighter tone. Lastly I used the warp tool to made her look thinner.

I will use this in my magazine to make my band member look more even but I will not over use like on this image as the band member shows the real him. Also rock/alternative magazines tend to avoid the image to look perfect as this kind of music isn't soft.

Name of my magazine

Unplugged- I like this name as it could be metaphorical for finding out more about a band members life.


Lava- I like this because it is short and memorable.


Code- This was my original name choice for my magazine, I like it because people's dress code is a big indication of what music they like and what there personality is like.
Revive- This means regain life, I like this because it connects with my band name and sounds catchy.


Volt- Short, simple and original.   this is the name I am going to use.


Voltage- force is expressed in volts, this makes the magazine seem like a big expression of rock/alternative music.

Inspirations for my magazine

These photo's of a Day To Remember, a famous rock/alternative band from America. I like the first photo because it's very casual, even though he is very successful the vocalist seems to be in a room that looks very personalised as some people would call is vandalism ( tags on the walls ), this could show that even though he is very successful he still can be like a normal rock/alternative inspired person without spending loads of money and looking really done up... this shows a grungy look.

The second photo I like because even though an image is still you can tell that there is a lot of life in that room by the audiences hands and the way ADTR's vocalist is standing. It also shows he connects with the audience, which is an important part of being successful.

Ideas

I changed the contrast on this image to make it more bold and eye catching

-Here are some images I have taken at a gig of All Time Low I went to last February, these inspire me for my double page spread. 

Name Of My Band

The main aim of my bands style is to be rebellious and original. The name of my band I have decided it to be Sons Of The Pope as the Pope in modern day society isn't allowed to have children or sexual relations because he is married to the church, this rebels religion. 

I created this on a font generator the font is called 'made with b' I like this font because it's eye catching and unusual. For my main image on my front cover I'm using two band members Adam and Alistair.These both people have a passion for my genre of music.

I have decided to change the name of my band, because many young alternative/rock influenced people may not understand the meaning of this. I have created a new name for my band which I believe is more suitable and unique, this font will be shown on the double page spread.

 

Amidst definition -In the midst or middle of; surrounded or encompassed by; among.

Ideology Of My Magazine

The main point I want to put across about my rock/alternative magazine is that is rebellious and out there. My main image on my front cover will be to band members of BuryThePriest or SonsOfThePope which rejects religion. This will connect to the younger generation as young people tend to be more daring and usually don't follow the norms and values of society. My magazine is aims to inspire to be created for people that have a passion for music, attend gigs and are inspired by other successful alternative/rock artists. My choice of alternative rock shows that it rejects mainstream music and shows a path of individuality which creates a new fashion.
