Filming schedule

my location 'Adrenaline alley' is hosting an all-night skate event with competitions, this means i can do lots of filming and maybe get an interview or two with some of the people competing.

Front cover conventions i am going to use

For my front cover, i will have the obvious conventions like; price, magazine title, barcode and a banner along the bottom saying what is featured inside the magazine.
i am going to use a simple font in the banner, this is so that the viewer can read easily so it sticks to conventions. My magazine title is shown in a previous post, it is a very bold font that stands out in contrast with the simple font i will use for the rest.
I want to keep the cover pretty simple only use a max of 4 colours, i don't want it ending up looking like 'Hello' magazine or anything like that.

Heres a cover that has the style i am going for, it is simple with its use of colour. My favourite thing about this cover is the font used on the cover, not the title, but the content, it has been done in an italic font with a shadow behind it, also it is all in different sizes which but in a random order, it doesn't go small to big.

Front cover photo

After realising this weather would stop me being ableto get any good photos, i decided to look through all my old photos from when i used to skate all the time. this one was of my favorites that i found so i have decided to use it for the front cover, obviously it needs cropping so it will be the correct proportions to be used. this is from a school playcard near my house that we used to skate in. i might try adjust some of the colours to make it look better, i'll post a few adjustments if i find any i like.

Photoshoot

These are some of the photos I took, I tried to get a very simple but extremely high quality photo. They were taken using a Canon EOS 550D which is why I managed to captured all the detail in the skateboard with the photos.

Magazine Name

I decided on the name 'CONCAVE' for the name, this relates to skateboarding because concave is the what the curve in the board itself is called, when i decide on a final font i will upload it here.

Location: Adrenalin Alley, Corby

i emailed this company to see if they would let me in the park 10 minutes early to do some filming, but unfortunately i never received a reply. This means I'm going to go this weekend when it opens and see if i can get some footage before the whole park is packed.

Filming problems

Cold weather and ice, just what i needed, its practically impossible to skateboard in this weather so i'll have to wait out for a 'normal' day before i can get any decent footage.
