Magazine Cover
This is the photo we decided to use for our front cover as we felt it worked well to be able to fit all the wording around and we also felt that it grabbed the readers attention.
Also the position of the characters emphasises the love triangle storyline.

This was our final design for the front cover of our magazine. We used the layout and colour scheme of 'TV easy' as we felt that this was bold and bright, we looked at the colours on the cover of the magazine as we felt that it exagerated the parody of the soap.
Using 'TV easy' it helped up to show some front cover CONVENTIONS: main story line anchored cover stars, tabs showing each day of the week, masthead in the first 3rd of the page, other soaps around the cover.

Magazine cover

We brainstormed different names of TV magazines to see which one we thought would fit our soap best. 'TV Buzz' was our favourite one out of them all so we included this in our planned drawing. We are using the conventions of the "TV easy" magazine as we feel that this fits the parody look better as it uses bright colours etc, doesn't look too serious.
We plan to show the love triangle from our soap "Ivy Wood" using Rhino, Chandelier and Micky, we plan to use an image of them at within the centre of our magazine cover to draw the reader in. We plan to use other images to create other soaps within the magazine to make it look like an official magazine cover.
After looking at the layout and the colour use of TV easy, this is our flat plan of the cover of the magazine that we want to create "TV Buzz"

Matt Beckwith drew up a draft of what our magazine cover would look like.
He used the layout of TV easy to do this, and by using the flat plan.
