3. FRESH RIHANNA AND CHRIS BROWN, HAS HE BEEN FORGIVEN? IS AVA ANSARI GOING SOLO? FRESH’S 15 SEXIEST STARS DEEPSIDE SHAKIRA Barcode I called my masthead ‘FRESH’ as it is unusual. It is catchy and short which most magazines are like. My image will be overlapping my masthead . So the letters ‘R’, ‘E’ and ‘S’ will be overlapped just a bit as I want readers to know what the masthead says. I got the idea from the two magazines I analysed. The font I will use is REBOARD as from looking at my questionnaire results most people preferred this font. It is also a sans serif font which I particularly like as it makes the heading stand out and is used for short text. The colour for my masthead will be either black, white or pink. I have picked the colour scheme to be black, blue, pink and white. This is because from looking at my questionnaire most people had said they like the colour scheme of black, blue, red and white. However instead of red I went for pink which is a similar colour. I went for pink as in the image the models bra strap is pink so I decided to stick with that colour BOBBY VALENTINO LIL KIM PITBULL CIARA ASHANTI TREY SONGZ’ HOT NEW ALBUM ‘ READY’ Eminem hints Mariah to be scared of than just a diss track EMINEM ‘ WARNS’ MARIAH CAREY CASELY KEISHA COLE I still haven’t thought about what text I will use for my kickers and explanatory text as it will be better if I start making my magazine cover and look at all the fonts one by one to see which one suits my cover so I will leave the font for the text blank for now. The background of my cover will be grey and white. They will be faded together. These colour were picked as in magazine covers they place a plain background. I chose a light colour to bring more attention to my main image
4. I decided to use one of the three colours shown above (black, white and pink). I chose these colours coz as you can see her bra strap is pink, her dress is black and the background as white and also the belt is silver which is similar to white. I wanted to stay colour co-ordinated as in the magazine covers I analysed they stuck to a minimum of 3 or 4 colours. I put a border around the white heading to make it stand out more. I put a effect on the black heading as I thought to colours would look nice on it. Finally I added the same effect for the pink heading as it looked plain and not so professional.
5. I decided to go with a black masthead. This is because I thought the white looked plain and not so attractive. The pink looked to feminine as the model is a female as well and the magazine is for both sex and also I preferred the black masthead to the other colours. This is what the background colour will look like. The white is more behind my model to make it more realistic that she is in the background.
