Rationale questions
The colour scheme I have chosen consists of Red, Black and Grey. I have chosen to use these colours as I found it to be common convention in music magazines to use a basic three colour palette, and magazines of my chosen genre usually use these three. This ensures that my magazine is easily recognisable to the genre, yet still looks appealing and visually pleasing. The main image I will be using on the front cover will be me. No props will be used in the image but I will use costume and makeup to acheive a rock chick look inkeeping with the magazines genre. The background of the image with be grey gradient, this will ensure the main focus of the image is me and it blends when placed on the magazine.
The font used on the front cover of the magazine will be consistent throughout. It will simple and bold to allow it to stand out. All the text will be placed horizontally as to not distract attention from the main image and sell lines and to ensure the front cover looks neat and organised.
My masthead will stretch across the top of the cover, in a style similar to that of Kerrang magazines. I will have a main sell line (the fictional interview), in a larger font. I will also place various features and extras around the cover, ensuring they do not over clutter the cover and look neat whilst at the same time giving the impression that the magazine is value for money and has a lot inside.
