This is a magazine front cover of a Rolling stones magazine. I am
particularly interested in the similar genre that this music magazine has to
the indie-pop style that is usually featured within this magazine though the
rolling stones magazine is related with rock. Additionally having the cover
star of Lana Del Rey is intriguing as she as well as the magazine itself has a
cross genre of music associated with them since Lana Del Rey is usually
associated with indie and slightly pop music, which I am hopefully planning to
incorporate within my music magazine. Furthermore, I particularly like the
colour scheme used as the vibrant red used to overpower the black and white
background is beneficial as it connotes to powerfulness and vibrancy and
creates this idea that the rolling stones magazine stands out brightly against
other competitors, which in my opinion is quite effective and hopefully I will
be able to use a similar colour scheme for my magazine. More so, the
photography used for the main image of the front cover is beneficial to the
overall ethos of the magazine as the style of this photography creates a
stunning yet relaxing to the image which is similar to Lana Del Rey’s stunning
style of music but also the vibrant colour scheme reflects the artists bold and
daring style of music also, which I wish to do too. Finally, the black and
white colour scheme used creates a classical feel to the music which is also
suggested from the mise-en-scene of the magazine front cover since the cover
star is wearing an arguably simple and classic swim suit look since swim suit
girls are typically related with pin up girls which were very popular in the
1950’s.
