Mock up magazine over

 

I have chosen to undertake a simple layout as i think it is the most effective way to approach making a magazine cover. I believe a basic but effective house style is needed so i will be using a blue and white color scheme. I believe the light blue will stand out against the white background effectively. The masthead will be behind the actors head allowing the main focus of the magazine to be given. I will keep to a similar variation of fonts to keep a tight and reflective house style. Photoshop will be used frequently allowing the photo to stand out and look effective. I want an effective use of synergy between the poster and cover so the audience can see the contrast between the two.  The will be a use of puffs featuring exclusive interviews with the cast and free posters inside the magazine.  The date will be positioned at the top next to the masthead and the bar code will be placed at the bottom.
