Music Genres

After investigating into Shindig magazine, it has inspired me to do a Mod magazine. Although it reports mod music, it isn't a direct mod magazine, I therefore want to create on independently for this genre. I believe there is a gap in the market for this magazine after investigating readerships of other magazines.

Moodboards - It's important to gather images from the mod cultures as well as photos in the time periods mod was famously popular. It will help me with ideas for my own photographs as well as what props to include and what clothes to wear.

 

Conclusion from my moodboards:

• MINI SKIRTS ARE A MUST. It's obvious that mini skirts were worn by the female mod rockets.
• Sunglasses must be worn no matter the weather
• A guy must be sitting near or around a motorbike at all times, ideally a vepsa
• Paul Weller is the 'Modfather'
• Black, white and red were big colours, the Jam even rocked union jack suits. They celebrated the British Spirit in the mod culture. The mod target was everywhere it could possibly be.
• Arrows in fonts were popular, as shown in by 'The Who'
• Fonts were big, font and curvy. The funkier the better.
