Throughout my coursework, I decided that my name was going
to be The Heir. This is because my initial plan was to have my model sitting on
a throne like chair with a crown on his head. This is because I looked at a lot
of magazines that have these designs but none were the same as my vision.
Whilst making my final cover, I realised that my name needed to change because
my initial design changed and I wanted to change the conventions of a normal
magazine cover and add something that hasn’t been added in before. This is why I
chose to add a filter to my model in Photoshop and also position my model with
a close up and only have his face and a bit of his body in frame to make my
unconventional magazine. Alongside this, I tried to include my old title (The
Heir) but it didn’t work with the font I was using. I was looking at Billboard
magazine designs at this time and really like the title going down the side,
ending with a tall letter with a flat surface. This is why I wanted to have a
name with 8-10 letters with a flat surfaced letter at the end. This is the
reason why I chose to call my magazine Blizzard which worked really well down
the side of my page and worked well with all of my drafts.
Clothing Hip Hop artists usually wear consist of a tank top, baggy jeans, glasses, a hat and jewelry (gold chain, watch Etc) - stereotypical. Some have tattoos on their arms and some wear suits when in a fashion shoot or in public. In these pictures, most of the famous hip hop artists are not wearing the stereotypical clothing. Some are wearing a suit, a leather jacket and casual clothing. Snoop Dogg is wearing jewelry with a gold chain around his neck. This is a casual look for Rappers and Hip-Hop artists.
