Before doing my flat plan, me and my group decided it was best to brainstorm ideas, including:
how to keep the house style but continue to stay original - we thought it was best to keep three main house colours, which were red, white and black (as suggested by our questionnaire results). These colours will be constantly used by us, but then I came up with an idea that if we reversed the colours in the writing, masthead and background, our house styles will be present but each magazine will be original.
We also looked at how each magazine will reflet the period of time which it is issued - I decided to take on the season of good will and happiness, Christmas, with this, I looked at present rock magazines which have included elements of Christmas, and decided to imitate something similar when constructing my magazine.
Another thing I noticed were logos which represented the magazine, I found that if each issue displayed a logo, the issues will be immediately noticed for which magazine the belonged to.
When planning our magazines, we wanted to make sure that our target audience was happy, and when making a decision, we felt that it was necessary that they should have a say, as a result, when it came to the last three possible names for our magazines, we decided that our target audience should have the final say. In the end, we resulted with the name RIOT which we were all happy with.
Above are the images of my flat plan which includes my group's basic house style ideas.
