Planning

I intend my magazine to be a music magazine which is based around music from the following genres: Goth, Darkwave, Deathrock, Post-Punk, Industrial, New Wave, and Punk.  These genres can be connected in some way due to shared musical origins, which is why I chose to include them all together in one magazine.  For inspirational texts I used magazines like Dominion, which is a music magazine focusing on the same genres and targeted towards the same target audience.  I will try to use some conventions of the genre, such as the colour scheme, fashion shown in the photos, and fonts etc.

There were some things I decided to subvert in order to go against the typical conventions.  This included using a white background instead of a black one for the photos to stand out better, and also to appeal to the undergound ideology of nonconformity.
