these are some of the styles of writing i was going to use. Because my magazine iz based around the theme of bollywood i tried to use indian style writing but my words are in english. i used the third one as it looks bold and easy to read. It also looks attractive and people would notice that this is a bollywood magazine.

i decided to come up with a whole new idea, and tried to make a "bollywood band", however i wasnt to enthusiastic about this idea, as it is very uncommon and didnt feel right for my magazine, i still experimented by taking pictures to see the outcome and i just decided to stick with a single female artist for my magazine.
I was going to use a male for my magazine however i decided not to do this because, in the bollywood industry there are loads of male artists, and the magazines are mainy dominated by males so i decided not to go for this option. However as you can see i did experiment by taking pictures and i decided to go for a female artist.
this is another picture i was going to use for my magazine, it is very attractive and also eye catching, the background is nice, and the picture looks very professional.
I also looked at different genres of music to see how i can use their conventions in my magazine, in this moodboard i have studied r&b music i have noticed unlike bollywood music magazines they rarely use the same colour themes, most of these magazines are very colourful and have different colours everywhere. This is still very eye catching and appealing, however for my magazin i chose to use the same colour theme throughout as this is what bollywood magazines do.
this is also another picture i was going to use, it looks very proffesianal however the problem is that it looks a lot like an asian bridal magazine rather than music. it looks very fashion dominated rather than an artist who will be singing.
this is something i used to see how many people consume music magazines, and just magazines in general it was a great help as it showed me how i could do things to improve the purchase rate of music magazines.
