Who Will Appear In My Magazine?

The image on the front cover of my magazine should reflect genre conventions of the magazine's identity. This includes their clothes, make-up, pose and props if any are used. My genre, Rock & Metal, uses darker colours for clothing and make-up, usually based around strong contrasting colours such as black and white. Rock symbolism also revolves around the darker side of life. For example, a lot of it is to do with death, satanic symbols and implied violent imagery. This can be reflected in my main image hrough the use of designs on clothing, possible make-up and facepaint or just general imagery. My genre is still quite wide however, as you have some rock bands such as Papa Roach and Avenged Sevenfold that base their style around black clothing and tattoos, bands such as Metallica that favour more casual clothing such as plain t-shirts and jeans, and bands like Kiss that were platform shoes, leather and facepaint.
