My final front cover

• Firstly, for my front cover of my magazine, I used a teenage girl model because this was the target audience and using this model suggested to the audience exactly what style of magazine this was. The colour scheme was then based around this, taking into consideration the types of colours young teenagers are into in this day in age. The ones I chose were lilac, teal and yellow. I used these as they all went well together and were very eye catching too. I then kept this colour scheme consistent throughout which gave the magazine a professional feel about it.
• I took time to view as many different style models as I could. My favourite was the 'we love pop' style magazine. I used and incorporated different pieces from this magazine into my magazine, for example, the 'we love pop' magazines head line was changed and I turned this into 'we love music' but added my own twist to this by adding font and colours. Secondly, I also took the highlighter from the magazine and added it to mine. Highlighting key words make the audience look right to it. These are usually the important parts of the magazine.
• The price and barcode both correspond and link with the colour scheme. These are located on the bottom right of my magazine. Many typical magazines use this convention so I decided to give it that look to.
• My title also includes effects such as a drop shadow and the colour I used behind this lilac was a yellow, again, keeping with the colour scheme in order to make it stand out and engage the reader or buyer when it is on the shelf in a store.
