For this task I had to go on ‘pinterest’ and research things about my genre in order to help myself when designing my magazine. Ideally this should help me find inspiration and ideas for my own work.
I have found images which are relevant to my mission statement and my have chosen some which I can use as reference for font, logos, poses and costumes. I think I will go for a more trendy and modern pop-punk feel and I will use the colour schemes which uses blacks and whites and then maybe red, yellow or orange. I think by using more conventional features of punk I can also aim to relate to my mission statement of a punk magazine that any fan of the punk genre can relate to.

Here is my moodboard!^
For this next part I created a slide about a pop punk star and noted how the media portrays them as ordinary and extraordinary. I noted the ways he portrays himself and how he dresses and other things in order to create my own cover star.
From researching modern punk I have found that they wear trendy clothes alongside things such as chains and rings and quite commonly eyeliner and hats. Many artists have tattoos so I think I will consider this when creating my own cover star.
I think that this will really help me find inspiration for my magazine and it will help me plan out my work and have an idea before the shoot. I also have more reference of the conventional and more modern features to use to appeal to my target audience.
