2. The four magazine covers above are from each member of our
group however we had to decided on what one we wanted to put
forward as our final group magazine cover.
4. Justification
For our final magazine cover we have chosen to use the ‘Red Carpet’, the overall reason for
choosing this magazine cover is due to how authentic magazine cover.
Within the magazine that we have chosen to be our final piece it is clear that there is an
awareness of conventions of the typical layout and page design .This has been shown through
how the magazine name has been placed at the top of the magazine, along with having the main
feature being the image of the actor, due to the image being the largest aspect on the page as
well as using direct address within the image of what is the typical convention of the images
used within magazines.
There is also excellent awareness of the need for variety in front and text size. In the magazine 5
different fonts have been used however they all effectively link together and are aesthetically
pleasing. Different font sizes have been used in order to emphasis the important information to
gain the audiences attention.
In order to make the magazine cover the use of an appropriate editing software, Photoshop, was
utilised in order to make the magazine as professional as possible the reason for this is because
it gives the appropriate editing software to use.
