Mood Board

In these front covers the main artist with the double page article is shown in either the middle of the front cover or seen taking up the entire front cover looking at the camera to make out as if the artist in the image is looking directly at the audience in order to attract the eyes of passer-by’s. in almost all of the music magazines front cover in this mood board all of them  are wearing generally dark colors on their costumes this is used in order to covey grimes music genre as unknown and quiet and not loud and proud like pop or RnB distinguishing the genre from other music genres. Overall the artists in these magazines are represented as cool and collective and quiet all apart from the RWD magazine front cover in the top right where the artists seem to be excited but apart from that magazine cover all the other magazine covers perfectly represent grime as a calm genre that is quite unknown and does not have artists that look for fame unlike pop and RnB. The fonts in the title blocks of these magazine covers are very similar in appearance, they use bold large text with either two colors or one color throughout the lettering which further relates to the simplicity of the grime music genre also these title block lettering have subtle altering to specific letters to highlight them such as the G in the bottom left grime music magazine and the R in the 2nd RWD magazine. The color scheme for these grime magazines are seen generally to be a dark color followed by a bright color in order to balance the darkness out and give the magazine a brighter outlook in order for it to be  recognized by the  masses that may glance upon it on a magazine stand. By looking at the front covers of these magazines us as the audience can infer that the articles in these magazines will be focused on grime artists or more specifically the grime artists that were featured as the central image on the front cover so we can also expect informal language being used in the articles because of the type of artists that are seen on the front cover.
