Locations used in existing magazines

I found that in many Vintage Rock magazines, they contents locations for their shoots are usually on a set and performed.

They have a block colour background and the some of the artists on the front covers are not with us anymore, showing that the magazine edits pictures of the artists onto the magazine.

The photos are not taken by them. The photos are usually black and white, to show the age of the performer, so when they use a block, bright colour for the backgrounds it represents old with new.

The magazines usually show the artists in motion and on each magazine there are various angles, wide and close up shots. The covers usually use a classic coloured background, the colours are strong and mature.

This has influenced my planning and creativity because it shows how the vintage magazines are set out to show the old and the new to their audience. I could possibly do something like this so that I can show the old and the new in my magazine too.
