The mediated image of the earlier McFly covers created a mix of the clean-cut 'boy band' image with the outrageous anarchic stage performances of various other bands, making them a kind of 'teen-friendly Nirvana'.

Photographs :)

This is a photo taken from a "low angled close up shot".
This is a picture using the technique "the rules of thirds".

This photo was taken using the "juxtaposed" technique. As the two people in this picture are very different with their styles, hair etc

Intro for Coursework

Hello, I'm Rachael Young and this is the first blog of my music magazine coursework project and over the course of this blog, I will show you how I have been building up ideas for my music magazine.
A Bit About Me
I am particularly interested in:

30 Seconds to Mars

Michael Buble

Fightstar
McFly
Amy Winehouse
Enrique Iglesias
Over the years, I have noticed that Pop music and Rock music is liked by a wide variety of people. Whilst pop is usually liked by young children, rock music is mostly loved by teenagers and adults.  The most natural choice of magazine for me to study is magazine is a magazine for the Pop/Rock Genre as I like a lot of pop and rock music. I am also going to see 30 seconds to mars live soon so hopefully i could download some of my own images from that genre shortly.
When I searched on http://www.nrs.co.uk/toplinereadership.html I found that in Kerrang! magazine, most of readers were adults and mthere was more male readers than female.
