2. Magazine layout number one
I think that this would be a good layout because it has loads of places I could put images and make it clear why the images are there within the writing underneath showing a image of a event the year before explaining what sort of genre of music the event is and stating when it'll be this year who is playing, when tickets will be available, dates, times, prices and where the events will be located
I think the way this page layout flows is really good because it shows you possible images of the events you might be attending and it also has lots of writing space for any valid information the only down side is that it may be too much for the reader to look at where there is so much going on the page I will consider having a page like this in my magazine but I think I won’t put as many images and focus more on the writing but not too much so it doesn’t come overwhelming for the reader. One of the other things I like is where it has images and information either underneath is or beside it making it obvious to what information is connected to the image.

3. Magazine layout number two
This was another option in what I could have as a spread sheet like. I like this one just because it has the same sort of layout as the first one yet the layout I find is better where it has some of the boxes in different places and I like where the writing is making it clear in what image is connected to the writing. I feel that it would be easier to read and nicer to look at. This layout has inspired me where like I said in my critical evaluation of the first image I would like something similar to that on just with not as much images and information so it isn’t too over whelming and I feel as if this layout does exactly that but I would like more spare space because you barely ever see a magazine page which it just full of images and writing so I would like to research further and look at magazines such as ID magazine and dazed and confused? Where they both have the same target audience as me so I will use inspiration off both these layouts and the way real magazines layouts are like .

4. magazine layout number three
The last of the layouts I had found I liked this where it was nice and clear. This layout seems like it would be easy to read but it would be beneficial if it had more image space. I find with this layout I will definitely have this sort of layout due to the fact I Like the way it has the images at the side and next to it is information space which I found has inspired me to use a layout similar to this where its got practically everything I am looking for in my magazine I would just like to tweak it ever so slightly to make it my own design. The only thing I don’t like is the column going down the right hand side of the page so I will probably take that out as I feel it would be unnecessary to have something like that in my magazine where it just looks messy this would be a good page to use when I am listing events in my magazine.

5. Summary
Out of all the magazine spreads I have chosen my third layout idea. I chose my third layout because compared to the other layouts I found that it was more appropriate where it has plenty of writing space and plenty of image spaces which is good because if the audience gets uninterested in reading they can always just look at the images. The second layout I felt was pretty similar to my first one but the layout didn't look good to the eye. The first layout I found compared to the other layouts I found that it was boring and wouldn't be interesting for someone to read and I think the audience would just find it dull.
