Final Work

 As you can see I have made changes to the anchorage text and highlighted the JVL section. This creates a stand alone effect and attracts readers as well as link it to a brand called JBL which is a hardware producer company. To do this I have went against my black and white theme, however this makes more sense to me, to show a mixture of old style and technology. vintage b & l, the red will create uniqueness and give off a dangerous feel to it as because red can mean danger. Another reason is to make the audiences feel a sense of "change" and how technology makes such a difference even on a vintage magazine.

 This links with the cover page, but this shows it in a clearer way. From the colors you can imagine a rainbow but instead its circles, I have meant to show lights and the effect technology has changed the way and how colors change from red to pale colours.

DPS context

He said that he respected  kayōkyoku (Japanese style pop music) but we told him he was wrong. His music contained something that was new, epic and unknown to tradition.

“I wanted something more!” He spoke in a furious temper. We all noticed that we shouldn’t have touched that topic but we wanted to know why; why was his music so different? 3 years after leaving back number, Mr Takahashi left on a journey to travel around the world, to see different sights, in a different environment. “I came back with something…” we didn’t know what he meant at first, but after releasing this bestselling album we all knew something must have happened, something that would scar the Japanese music history.

After his major return, we went to Miss Ogiso Setsuna who was his fiancé before he left on his journey. We asked her a question seeking information about what he did while he was away. She answered, “I knew nothing.” She said averting her eyes with a tremble in her voice. We knew there was something; we knew something had happened.

Months later we received an unknown threat from someone who didn’t want us to research the topic. We were taken aback from what happened, our superiors told us to stop researching and most of my team members left the music industry to escape the threat.

I was alone, alone and was the only one left who wanted to know the truth behind his change. I knew that I shouldn’t do this, but I wanted to know, I had to know, I wanted to be someone whose name would be in history. I was broke and unemployed after months of pursuing the truth. “What did I do wrong!” I shouted, left in the darkness ever alone. But I saw a light, hope reached out to me in the human form of Mr Takahashi.

That day was the moment I will never forget.  He reached out to me and I took his hand. Before I knew it I was in a room. It was dark and I couldn’t see anything, but I could hear the voice, his voice reaching to me. “Fine?” he asked.

“Yes” I replied. That was the last thing I heard.

After a blank space of time, I could sense a change, and I heard a loud voice “Bam!”

“Yuki!” I shouted. It was a song, a song I was really familiar with, it’s them. HI hats, guitar, bass lastly his voice played a harmony of instruments. The next thing I knew was that I felt that my eyes were hurting, it was tears, how long have I waited for this moment, how long have we've been waiting for them.

DPS Project

 This is the picture I took originally, and as you can see in the second screen shot, I have completely deleted the background and changed it to black instead and also made the image black and white because all my pages are done in black and white. The reason I chose a black background this time was to increase variety, and to gave a surprise to the audience, but my main reason would be that blues associates with the ‘dark’ a dark room playing music kind of thing. However the reason to why the bottom picture looks different is because I have made changes by putting in extra effort such as increasing the exposure and vibrance to make the image seem more, 'rough' kind of feel.

 In this shot, I have added a title for my dps, this associates directly with the contents page, because the headlines is the same as well as the page number, this is to make sure that they are from the same magazine. Fonts used are exactly the same, blues..... mast head font, footer exactly the same as the contents page. And here I wanted some more variation so I included the japanese name of the band, well it is red as backnumber.

 And as you can see I have include a quotation below the heading to make the article seem more reliable and realistic to the reader, this will make them think that this is actually about the actual band and have been research thoroughly.

In this last one you will see on the top left I have included the same font as the content page of 'japan' and also included the 'international' sub, the reason I decided to this this was again to keep the styles constant and reliable.
