Magazine Title
After weeks of deliberation, I decided upon using the name Vuze. Although there is not a close link to music, I think the name sounds perfect for a magazine. I also feel that it has connotations of news as it rhyme with it and also suggests that you are getting a view into this music lifestyle. When putting the title of my magazine on the front cover, I will use the eurofurence light font as I feel it fits really well, for the simplistic but quirky magazine style I am going for.

Photographic Influences
On this website, there are many photos taken, using HDR cameras. The resolutions are put together to show a variety of colour in the images, to make them look simply stunning.

Fonts
The fonts I have looked at for my headlines are all a little quirky. I think I will probably use the "telegraphico" font in my double page spread. I may also try using "euphorigenic" but I feel could be quite risky due to it being fairly hard to read. I think I will use "dusseldorf" for my main headings on my front cover and then use "euroference light" for cover lines.
For my basic fonts out of the 4 I have looked at I think I will use "Helvetica" as it is simple, basic and looks formal. I am also considering using "gills sans" for some pieces on information, maybe for use on my contents page.
Colour Schemes
This is a colour scheme I am considering for my main front cover, with cover lines and one main image. I am considering using a grey background, with my model wearing black, grey, white and red clothing. I also think my magazine title will be in black and grey.
After looking at Esquire magazine, I feel I could add another element to my magazine by using 2 covers. This cover will be a lot more simplistic, with no cover lines and just the name of my magazine at the top. The cover will be primarily focused on the image of the person on the front.
This is another colour scheme are considering using, either for the front cover or the contents page. The black and white colours would be used for the main writing, with blue being used for titles and texts boxes.
This colour scheme I felt would be a risk, as it takes away the simplistic feel, but could work for something like my double page spread, as I feel there needs to be a standout colour.
