3. I decided to change the background to just a plain colour so it makes the cover look
better as well as removing any distractions from the main image and feature stories.
Also it means that I had to cut my model out of the background therefore it took me
about an hour to cut it out properly because if I cut it with the straight lines it would make
her head look squared and unrealistic.

I could not decide which colour to use
for the border around the posters
because as you’ve noticed, the
dominant colours of the magazine are
purple, white and black. I used white
colour on the border on the right
hand-side because if I used purple, it
wouldn’t stand out and it would be too
much of this colour so to attract the
audience successfully, I needed to
choose a different colour. The reason
why I didn’t use black was because it
wouldn't stand out either, that’s how I
came to a decision to use white.
For the second poster I used black
colour because white and black
always go together so it makes a
contrast between those two. As you can
see, in the top screenshot you can see
that I was making a decision of which
colour to use for this one, was thinking
of using purple but considering the
background is quite off-purple/violet, it
wouldn’t stand out in this case either so I
thought that black colour would be the
best to use.
