This is the second stage of my magazine front cover i have added tht masthead. The title of my magazine is "un-plugged" we choose this title as a group as it relates to music, I choose a blue and white colour for the mast head as the model is wearing blue and white in her outfit and so there not to many colours being used.

This is the image i started off with for my magazine front cover. I have decided to change my whole layout of my magazine cover i have previously uploaded. I am now keeping the brick wall as my background for my main image this is because as i am working in a group the magazines will go much better together if i keep this background instead of a plain block colour this is because our magazine theme is urban and vibrant.

I have choose this background colour as the models clothes and the background colour compliment each other. I have also added a bar code onto the bottom right hand corner this is to make it look realistic and professional. The masthead It large and bold to stand out i choose the colour white beacuse it blends in with the colour scheme. All three of my groups magazines have some part of the masthead covered this is so well known and popular with readers and can be reconised without all of the word showing.

This is one of the photos we took, and as a group we considered it for the front cover. We liked the colourful costumes and the background wasn't too busy. We also liked the relaxed and urban poses of the models. However we decided not to use this image because one of the girls is already used in one of our other front covers in the same outfit, and we have to have 3 different issues of the magazine with 3 different images.

This is one of the photographs we considered as a front cover for our magazines. We liked this image as the back ground and the bright funky clothes on the model contrast with each other and make the model the main featue of the magazine. It also looks urban which ties in with the genre of the magazine. This image has the conventions of a normal magazine (rule of third) However the reason we never choose this image was beacuse we wanted the model to be on the other side of the camera shot so it would be simple to put he strapline on the left handside.

This is a simple layout for a magazine. It contains a masthead a main image, a skyline, a kicker and a few strap lines. The magazine has a plain background which makes the main images of the women and the strap lines stand out more.

The masthead is one of the key features of this magazine. It is big and bold which makes it stands out. There is alot of colours in this magazine which isn't a usual convention of a front cover, there is normally three main colours but this front cover is different The blue masthead and fergie's outfit is one of the main colours. There is also green, white red and a vintage style wallpaper in the background. Although there is alot of colours going on in the magazine, the layout is quite simple there is only one main image, the strap lines are plain and straight to the point. I think if there was anymore images it would spoil the front cover and make it look to busy and cramped.
