Front Page Evaluation

On my front page i used a main image of a slope looking up at the Chamrousse snowpark. I chose this a suitable image as i used video of myself and chopped it up into picture form to create a sort of flickbook affect. This was a method i chose so that it would give the reader of 'Music' magazine a sort of understanding of what the Indie Grab looks like when sliced into seperate images.

I feel that this sequence would of been better if i had taken the video from a direct side angle as that would have enabled the reader to see the entire jump and landing easily, however i think that having the last image ithout any being in the frame work well as it gives off the impression that the frame is completly finished.

Here is the video of which i took the frames from...

The video was shot in Chamrousse, France.

As a hole i think that my final front cover turned out very well, it has followed the conventions of normal magazines and the indistury. I know this because i have studied in detail the magazines created and published by Whitelines, I have used their methods in places like, the images are edited and i played with the conventions of lighting.

I think that it is effective in the way that I have included more than one theme on my project, the two themes being, Snowboarding and Music. This has worked well because music is a very big part of the sport and the sport is a personal hobby.

This is definatly the best part of the magazine because I think the images and the fonts work really well, one of the main features I like is that the text antwhere on the page is extremely easy to read and understand.

I really like the way that the background contrasts against the origional image.

I think the postioning of the whole peice of work is good because none of the front cover content is comprimised.
