magazine

For my magazine project, I chose to do a festival issue for a live music magazine. The title I chose is supposed to read "live for live (music)." The particular festival I chose to cover was Bonnaroo. I chose it for its setting in Tennessee, which I found pretty unconventional for music festivals, and its an event that would provide me with colorful, lively pictures. For the pictures throughout the magazine, I just chose pictures of the bands that played the festival. The cover is Radiohead in concert and though they didn't play at Bonnaroo, I felt their stage presence and lighting effects would be a good cover for the magazine. For the ad, I chose a M.I.A Marc Jacobs ad because shes basically an indie phenomenon, and her fans are likely to go to music festivals. The colors I chose, like the bright red for the title and sidebar, were meant to bring some excitement to the article.
