Practice Magazine Cover


This is the finished product of my practice magazine cover. The colour
 used on the cover are black, white and red. I like these colors because stand out and look effective on the main image. I dislike the masthead used in the practice cover as it is too dark and also too long. Popular music magazines sun as 'Q' and 'NME' have short snappy mastheads that are in the top left corner of front covers. My masthead is too long and too dark so it is unclear to read from a distance, this can cause problems for the front cover and limit the range of audience. To be different, I would change the masthead as it lacks colour and is too dull. This is the main area to improve.

The aspects that went well were the composition of the main image as it gives a nice effect towards the front cover. The tools that were useful were the magic wand tool. I intend to use the magic wand tool more often so the masthead goes behind the main image, used by popular magazines. I also intend to add more flare to the front cover as well.
