Final double page story page!
Just in case you couldn’t read what the text says when reading it on the actual double page spread, this is a copy of the paragraphs.
The biggest thing to hit R’n’b since 1996 the Big toe is taking the music industry by storm. BT as he more commonly known stomped on the scene with his first solo record Addidas stripes, which went straight to number one, he has been hitting us with fresh tunes ever since.
The up and coming white British Liverpool born, kick boxing black belt rapper tells us how he was bored of listening to the same old two singers, two guitarist boy bands that where coming out of Liverpool’s music industry. His varying style and unique voice make him stick out from other artists that are trying to break onto the scene.
Coming from Maghull one of the toughest areas in Liverpool the Big Toe faced many difficulties in finding people to sign him onto their record label, but when Star records made the discovery of BT they knew he was a ‘star’ straight away. BT told JCM that his main inspiration to become a R’n’B artist was the great Jay Z BT said that once he heard the black album he knew what he wanted to do in life.
BT says off course the Beatles coming from Liverpool shows that big music can come from the heart of the city. He says in his confident way that he can become the next biggest thing to come from Liverpool since the fantastic four. For someone so young this is a huge comment to live up too, but from what we have seen from him so far ‘the sky really is the limit’.
The big toe is making his very first festival appearance in the near future by headlining the V festival in the summer with huge artists including Rihanna and Eminem as well as Plan B, he can wait and is looking forward to spit his tunes and wowing the crowd as he has promised to do whenever he performs.
The latest thing we have heard from BT is the record breaking first album ‘The Breakthrough’ which stayed at the top of the R’N’B charts for 7 and a half weeks the album boasts 6 number one hits and 3 other top ten tunes, you will be able to see him live on the break through tour in the near future as he wants to start just before the festival season so that he can make it in time for his headlining act at the V festival. The big toe is currently working on his new album which is out on the 28th April revealing exclusively to us that it will be called ‘Here to stay’, he has revealed his first song on the album that will be revealed a week earlier will blow our minds, It’s that good.
Throughout the interview with BT he seemed very relaxed and confident just like he does when you see him on the television and here him on your radios, he was open and honest with us and seemed to be very focused and determined to become the very best. He compares himself to he likes of Jay Z and the Beatles and were not arguing JCM thinks the big toe can make it all the way in the business.

Mock pitures!
These are shots that I took on my photo shoot whilst attempting to get around 3-4 good shots that I could us in my actual music magazine, these are the shots that I believed didn’t look right or I didn’t think they were right for the music magazine, so these pictures won’t be making it into my actual music magazine when I finally start to create it.
1) In the first picture you see my actor standing near a stone memorial statue the extreme long shot of Sean doesn’t look as good as I had thought it might of, I took another picture of him closer up and this may be a better picture to use in the magazine.
2) In the second picture of Sean standing on the bridge the light in the background had an effect on the camera lens and shadowed around Sean making the image of him look too dark, also his facial expression wasn’t professional enough as he was laughing at the time of the shot.
3) The third shot of Sean isn’t really what I wanted I thought that if I had a disguised picture of him then it might be a mysterious and possibly draw audiences in to reading the magazine but when I looked at it again I realised that it looked like a blooper shot as if I didn’t mean to take it.
4) The fourth shot that I have decided to be a mock shot was a picture that at the time I thought looked good however when placed on the computer I saw that you can’t really see Sean through the lightness of the sun and also the extreme long shot is just too far away for you to see him anyway, and you can’t actually see who is in the picture.
Production Log!
The production log was kept so that I could keep an eye on what I had to do over the course of creating my media blog, it kept me in time and made me work hard so that I would make sure I published all my posts on time and in order.
Risk assessment form, People at risk form, Contributors release form!
The risk assessment form contributors release form and people at risk forms were necessary forms that I had to complete in order to prove that I took the right precautions to keep myself and my actor, who is going to be in the main article in my magazine of a new up and coming white British rapper, would be safe, they were necessary to me so I could make sure that any risks could be removed from the situation, and we could work in a safe environment.
ACTOR
Sean Foot
COSTUME
I made sean wear a hoody as it adds to the look of a rapper I also made him wear dark jeans as I thought they looked better than lighter coloured jeans, I also made him wear trainers as I beleived that this made him look better.
VENUE
The venue I took the pictures in was behind a disused pub in kirkdale close to the station I chose to take the pictures hear as I thought it added to the look of a rapper being hard and tough, I also took pictures through an alley way near the everton ground I did this because io thought it looked good and added to seans look.
