Before putting my DPS article together, I wrote the article which I got feedback on to improve. I looked at different examples such as NME and MOJO to see what they wrote their articles like and took inspiration from them to create my own. I wanted my article to sound relaxed and quite informal which sounds a lot more personal and easy for the person reading it. I also used colloquial language to make it sound more informal and fit more to the rock n roll genre, I also used elements of dialect to emphasise Bryony's accent which I had seen featured in NME.
I decided to have quite a basic but effective layout for my magazine, originally I planned to use more than one image and have less writing, I got a different idea from an issue of NME where the article only had one strong image and thought this would look more proffessional. I carefully chose my image of the cover star because on both the cover and contents page she has her face covered by a record. In thi article it gives the reader a chance to see the model properly, sporting a smiler shot to make her look youthful and carefree. I made a few improvements to my written article from the feedback I got from my lecturer.
