Front cover- first draft

This is the first draft of my front cover for my magazine. I feel it has turned out quite well and looks proffesional and resembles a magazine similar to the ones I researched. The magazine logo and masthead was created using the font Myriad Pro, I then added an effect on photoshop to make it look worn away, used an eraser tool to take away some parts of the text and used a paint tool to add drips and splatters. This makes it look as if the text has been spraypainted on and adds to the grimy rock feel of the magazine. Across the top of the page I have talked abut what sort of things are inside the magazine and used the phrase "uk's number 1 music magazine". This is to give the audience an idea of what they can expect to find when they purchase the magazine and to reassure them that this magazine is value for money and has a lot of articles inside. I tried to use sell lines I thought would draw in and intrest my target audience. I included: the main story, the fictional interview with me, an exclusive on confirmed acts for Download festival, gig reviews and what other bands you can expect to find inside the magazine.
