Completed Front Cover



My completed magazine cover has a clear and organized layout that is the same as my draft cover. I decided to change the main image to a male figure as the splash is 'New Head Boy' and I think that a male figure fits better. I chose to use one subsidiary image as when I tried putting two on the cover it looked cluttered and the images themselves looked too small for the rest of the magazine. I used Photoshop to remove the background of my main image and decided that for my subsidiary image I would keep the background. I kept the same font throughout the magazine cover and I thought that it worked well because it was a type writer style. I kept to the colour scheme that I first chose with the black and yellow but decided that my images would look better in colour as black and white imaging is seen more on music magazine covers.


I am very pleased with how my front cover turned out as I think it looks good and would appeal to young pupils of the school. I think that the layout of my text fits well with my main image and everything slots in neatly.
