Second Interview

This week I decided to start to make the second interview that will be on the second page of the double page spread. This time I am going to interview a band called the 'preme's. The interview is similar to the other one that I made for last weeks band. Now that I have got all of the information to go into my magazine I can now start to think about the layout that I am going to use for my magazine. I kind of want the magazine to mainly be about the two bands that I have photographed and interviewed. My inspiration for this magazine cover is to try and look like this but obviously making it look like my own magazine.
