Digital Mock Up

Magazine Title

I have chosen my magazine title to be 'dark temptation'. I have chosen this title because I think it is catchy and easy to remember but not only that I think it is also something that everyone has a temptation of dark things that we shouldn’t want, also in most cases we always want what we can’t have so the idea of 'dark temptation' is supposed to suggest being tempted by things that shouldn’t tempt you. I also wanted it to remind you of the cynical dark side of our need for things such as alcohol and drugs, but not only that also the temptation and need we have for music in this generation. I do think that my magazine is slightly more targeted at the teenage generation as I have based it on the NME magazine which I think is definitely aimed more so at the teenage audience, I think this is inevitable as the teenage audience are the main people that would be interested in purchasing a music magazine.
I have included some images from various different bands. Some of the bands included are famous, such as the strokes and the vaccines, but I think this is different from using one single individual artist as the focus is taken away from the single person with a band. In the picture above, we are focusing on the style of the band and what they are doing as opposed to who the band are, we are relying on the stereotype of the way they look which is what I wanted to create because readers are going to aspire to dress and act like them, and when this is the initial thing we notice when we look at the photograph then this is a positive because this is the first thing readers will notice. I have retrieved some images of the internet and recreated them to be my own in Photoshop because it is hard to recreate an image like this using my own resources.
