Front cover:
I decided to change my image due to feedback. I have now made it more focused and then used more of my images to create variation. I have stuck to my colour scheme of red, black and white. I also did some more font research and found a larger range that I thought would suit my magazine. I have included typical conventions such as a bar code, pricing and issue number to make it realistic. I kept the bubble shaped boxes around some of the text to make it more appealing to my target audience yet did get rid of it on the bottom to make it look more sophisticated yet still keep the light hearted, easy reading feel about it.
Contents page:
I didn't make many changes to this as i was initially happy with it. I had to change the black and white picture due to it being on my front cover. I kept the colour scheme the same and decided that i did not need to change the text as i was happy with the layout of this.
For this I felt the image with more detail would be more fitting as it is quite complex and not clear at first glance. I used a white/silver typeface on the bottom to keep with the colour scheme and to also add more diversity of typeface's within the magazine as before it all looked quite samey. I used a fade effect on the right hand side where the text because I felt a block colour was too 'in your face' and did not look as professional. I used the same heading typeface's as I did on my front cover to keep a running theme throughout and then used a simple typeface 'Calibri' for the text. This is because it looks sophisticated and is easy to read. I also found from my research this is mostly the style they use.
