Idea for my front cover, article type and layout.

The above image is what I am aspiring for my front cover to be. The masthead of 'OMG' which I intended to be interchangable between different colour schemes from each magazine (similarly to NME magazine) is yellow and blue as I intend for the main image to be the colour displayed above, a pale blue. The cover line will tie into the main image, in that the main image will use Jessie McDonald as the cover star yet also in the content of the picture and what has been said in the cover line.

The main image, will have a mid shot of Jessie holding a small cupcake, which a bite has been taken out of, with a label tag sticking out of it, to mimic the cake that Alice in 'Alice In Wonderland' eats to get big. And so the idea of getting big is a double entendre in that it reflects both the idea of Alice growing in size in the film and Jessie's explosion upon the music scene in 2011 (as expressed through the coverline). I thought this was a good idea in that the magazine style I am going for is a cool, retro look at pop music and in the past year, with the release of Tim Burton's version, the film itself and the whole 'brand' of Alice in Wonderland, has began to appeal to a more teen orientated market.
