Lady Gaga Vanity Fair Photoshoot [Behind The Scenes!]
I have recently found a video on youtube which shows what inspired me for my magazine. This clearly shows her outrageousness and her style which is what I wanted to make clear in my magazine.

Lesson of 14th March 2011
Today I have started planning my evaluation, I am hoping to make a video for a few of the questions to use different technologies. Today, I also received feedback from the class and my lecturers on my magazine so next week I will tweak my magazine.
Today I added page numbers onto my double page spread and changed the size of a coverline on the front cover, I also moved up the text on my double page spread so it didn't overlap the picture.
Next week I will upload my fully completed version and start on my evaluation.

Lesson Of 28th February 2011
Today, i started my double page spread. So far it is going really well, I am really happy with the choice of image and my article is coming along really well. In my article next week I am going to start writing about the transition from who she was before gaga to who she is now.
I am hoping by next week I have finished the article and will have done the double page spread.

Double Page Spread Proposal
I intend to create my double page spread to be "like" an interview but instead of the traditional question and respone shown on the DPS I want to create it like a story of the interview. Q does this too and it helps show sophistication by having it written very well and having a lot of writing in the article too. I also intend my DPS to have background information on Lady Gaga to help show the journey of her as an artist which will be linked to her talking about fame.
I think this is relevant to my target audience as my target audience is for mature music lovers between the ages of 18-40 which means most of them will have been well educated and will be able to read in depth articles and will be more interested in what the artists have to say.
My genre is suitable for my target audience as it covers every type of genre in it, pop genre music consists of many different genres within it such as pop rock. This would mean that anyone between the ages of 18-40 should have an interest in the magazine.
I am intending to incorporate my original images into the DPS by planning on having the image go landscape across the two pages. This is because I really like the image and thought it made magazine have an edge to it which is what i wanted. The image also shows sophistication which links back to how I wanted the magazine to be. If I have room I might also add an image that i took when I saw lady gaga live if I think it looks suitable as I want the DPS to be simple but look classy and have that slight edge too.
I have obtained information for my DPS by looking on the internet about Lady Gaga and also by reading the feautre of Lady Gaga Q did a few years back to gain inspiration.
Here is part of the Lady Gaga's DPS in Q magazine.
The visual style I want for the DPS is to look simple but sophisticated and have the same conventional look of an article, I want pops of colour like red to pop out of the DPS and to have quotes to pop out to attract the reader. The style of writing I am intending to use is formal and have some humour in it.
I want my double page spread to show how powerful Lady Gaga is as a women and also her love for her fans and what she does as an artist. The video I took from the concert I went to on the 16th December 2010 shows all of this and helps show my inspiration for my dps.

Different Types of Double Page Spreads for a Music Magazine
Interview-
is where the group or artist is being asked questions and the answers are written up and used in the article, normally the article would have the question written and the response underneath it, but as Q magazine is sophisticated and is for a more mature audience the interview is written up fully and added depth is added, for instance they would tell it like a story which they have done before. For example, saying how the artist was late by 3 hours and they met at a hotel. I am more likely to use an interview in this way as my magainze is very Q influence it would help attract the correct audience who like in depth articles and written well.
Album or Live review-
these articles are when the reporter would either listen to the artists or groups album or go to a live concert and give his opinion on what they thought about. In Q magazine they would give a detailed report and when doing a live review they normally show the set list to give the audience an idea of what to expect if they are soon going to see that artist or group.
Another way Q does double page spreads is like a story of an artist of a groups life. This was seen when it was the 10th anniversary of the death of Kurt Cobaine, the lead singer of Nirvanna. They showed the build up of his suicide and the bands history too, this would be interesting to do, however, i would have to change my main coverline on the front cover to achieve this.
