These are the ideas I have had so far for my magazine masthead. The ones I like the best are 'Chocolate Dealer' 'Adam Gorry' and 'KG royals' so I am going to create some draft models and decide which one I like the best and which one looks the most effective.

Drafting/Planning magazine layout - Colour Scheme
These are the main 3 colours I will be using in my magazine.
Pink is a very feminine colour and young women are my target audience so using these types of colours will attract females. The magazine will be a classy, girly style and I think these colours, along with white, will be well suited and keep the magazine looking well presented.

Drafting/Planning of photography/ Organisation - My model/artist
Here are two pictures that I have recently taken of my model. The pictures are not of the highest quality but they show her look and gives an impression of the look of the magazine.
She is undoubtedly pretty, and her look can vary and change a lot so I will be able to style her in any way and it will still suit her and look good.
For the front cover, I want the picture to be a medium close up of my model and I think I want her to be dressed in black, as black tends to look effortless and classy and that is how I want my magazine to be portrayed.

Drafting/Planning/research into similar products - Ideas for magazine titles
So far my ideas for a magazine title have been very similar to the name of my artist. I want something related to music like an instrument or musical term.
The name that I think sounds the best for a magazine is 'Harmony' which was originally one of the ideas for the artist name.
I am going to do further research into music magazine names to give me more inspiration for an idea.
Research into similar products - Supporting Artists
I am going to look into support bands and artists that have worked with solo female artists in the past, that are not hugely famous but that people may have heard of.
So far I have researched into Gabrielle Aplin's support act, Josh Kumra, who also had a number one with Wretch 32.

I have also looked into a young female singer named Emily Sargant, who has done small support acts and has an audio gallery full of her own songs and songs that she has covered. Her voice is very soft and girly which is the type of singer I am looking to support my artist.

Organisation of artist/ Drafting and planning - My Artist
I have decided my artist is going to be a solo female singer with a name like 'harmony'. I have considered using this names as they link to music and makes the name more interesting.
I want my artist to be quite feminine and pretty/classy looking. I also want her to be young, as I want it to appear that she is only just recently started to become famous and is not yet leading a 'celebrity lifestyle'.
I will make the album be the first album released, so it is named simply after her. It will include typical girly soundings songs such as 'let it go' and 'summertime'. I want my album to have at least 8 tracks overall, with one being a number one hit.
My artist will soon be going on tour in the summer and she will be travelling around the UK performing in places such as Birmingham LG Arena, Nottingham Capital FM Arena, Manchester Academy etc.
