Photoshop 4

This is my fourth Photoshop attempt, and it involves the merging of two artists for a collaboration. Fifty Cent and Susan Boyle had to be merged, and though the quality is not great, I have successfully done the task.  In order t achieve the effect I desired, I duplicated Susan Boyle, and cut around her arms, placing 50 Cent in a middle layer, over the original body and under the cut-out arms. 

Magazine Analysis

Mixmag uses a white masthead to stand 
out against the background and create a colour scheme with the white logo. It has a skyline that brags about popularity, "The world'd biggest dance music and clubbing magazine"

The image used is one of Knife Party, and the duo is visible in the corner of the logo, perhaps connoting that the music is more important than themselves.

The large writing and colour used creates a sleek look, and the purple bullseye-like look allows the logo to be noticed, the logo is the key image. 

Cover-lines run down the right as a free CD takes up the left side, which would be a key selling point against rival magazines.   

The magazine's simplistic nature and large logo create a link between the magazine and the music it specialises in. This genre of music often has DJ's playing other musicians songs, showing the genre is more important than the people.
