MAGAZINE NAME

I have chosen the magazine‟s name to be „MOTION‟ as it is reflective of

both the motion of the body during dance and the constantly evolving

music industry. Also denotes that the new artists in featured in the magazine

are moving forward in their careers.

Magazine – The Objective

To give prominence to rising talents who deserve publicity.

To help and inspire people who want to get into dancing as a hobby.

Interviews with established artists/dancers and how they got to where they

currently are.

To establish itself as a renowned magazine that thrives on delivering

premium content.

HOUSE STYLE – FRONT COVER

CASE STUDY

I have taken inspiration from „VIBE‟ Magazine as I feel it has a fresh, clean

and modern look that I am attempting to achieve.

HOUSE STYLE – DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD

CASE STUDY

For the DPS I have taken inspiration from a magazine other than VIBE. I

prefer the clean modernistic look shown here.

MASTHEAD - DESIGN

My masthead uses the font „Harabara‟. I have chosen this Sans-Serif type

font as it is bold and easily readable.

The masthead will be layered underneath the MCU of my chosen model, to

denote importance to the model of the magazine. As it will be partly

hidden, it is important that the font type is clear and bold to compensate.

Article Content – The C-Walk

The article will go deep into the C-Walk Subculture that has been created

via a YouTube phenomenon.

Will interview my friend GoSu, who is famous amongst the C-Walk

community for his popular YouTube video.
