3rd draft at my frount cover

magazines that influened me with my magazine.

I like the way that all of these front covers are designed in a way that is quite clean. As there isn't a lot plastered all over i.e. lots of sub story lines and plus pictures. All the focus is mainly on the main image. My magazine work reflects this also.

Second draft at my front cover

A change of idea for the mast-head font and change of picture from the first go at my final piece.

the unfinished and finished, second draft for my contents page

 

Frist draft at my contents page

Frist draft at my front cover

flowing my colour scheme of dark purples, black, reds and whites to reflex the indie rock theme.
I have added pictures that I took from The 1975 gig I went to, to add interest to the magazine and it adds to my cover line stories.

I have airbrushed  my model Jades face on Photoshop to appear as her skin is flawless. As you will see if you look back to my picture's I took of jade that is in a later post on my blog.
You shall also see that I have cut around the picture of jade to transverse her face onto a different back group. originally I took the photo of her was with the back group of a grey back group which I changed to a purple back group on photo shop. I did this to make Jades eyes stand out and to also fit my colour scheme. The reason I wanted Jades eyes to stand out was because. In research that if the person on the main image on a cover of magazine is looking into the camera. The audience get more drawer into the magazine and more or less end up buying it so I thought if I make Jades eyes stand out more by the use of colour this would add to this,
