Brainstorming:

Throughout the Music Magazine Industry there are various different styles and designs of magazine which are used highlighting and portraying modern and popular bands and documenting important events in the music magazine. Generally the magazines include a medium-close up to close up shot of a band which is then surrounded by related bands and artists. The magazines have the company logo in the Title which are brightly coloured and usually relate to the Colour Theme of the article. The background of the image is generally a colour/ pattern with the photo of the band over the top which has had the background removed. The Magazines have clear bold texts which are easy to read which brings the readers attention to important related information to the main story of the magazine and any related articles and the exclusive additional content like posters, CD's. Throughout the magazine lots of bold text is used with short catchy slogans and lots of pictures with bands which have aggressive expressions on their faces.
