Fonts and layout

Images to use throughout the magazine: To go on the front cover of my magazine, I am going to use a secondary image in order to make the magazine more interesing - this is ahown in my layouts. Although the above image is good I dont think I am going to use it as the artist is looking directly at the camera, like the main image therefore I think two images where the artist is looking directly at the camera is too much.





I am going to use this image as my secondary image as it is different to the one I used as my main image and reflects the type of artist I am using.







I dont think this image is suitable for the front cover as it needs to be more zoomed in and the lighting is slightly different to the others and doesnt look as good as the others.










This image is very good however, the artist is not looking at the camera therefore she is not looking at the audience.





I have chosen to use this image as I think it will look best for the front cover. The artist is looking at the camera therefore the audience will feel as though she is looking at the reader and therefrore making them want to read the magazine.







I like this image, however like the one above, I think it would be better if the artist was looking at the camera as this will draw the audience in and make them want to buy the magazine.











Background colour:



I think this background could be very effective as the different tones make it interesting. I do think it may be a little dark though and could over power the text and images.






As the name of the magazine is in purple I have thought about using this and I do not think this would look best as the colourings are too similar to the colour of the magazine name.







Although this could be quite boring because it is just plain grey, I think this background could be effective as it is very simple, therefore the text and images would stand out.






Fonts:

Having put each of these titles on the front cover of the magazine and reviewed what it looks like with the image (above), I think the very last one looks the best. However I am going to change the colour and although below I have said the colour scheme is going to be purple and gold, I am going to make the title black as it ties in with the house style best.
