Front Cover Inspriation

I really like this issue from Kerrang magazine. I like the way everything is layed out - with the main attraction (bring the band) in big bold letters in the middle of the page. The colour schemeworks well, as it is plain, with then somecolour added into it with the picture itself. They have used the main colour from the picture in little parts of the front cover e.g. titles, text. I really like the plain, neautral colour scheme, with the one bright/bold colour used as well. I will incorporate parts of this cover in my final design.

Areas for Improvement

After receiving back my mark scheme, I have realised the areas where I can improve my work:

• To post more 'inspirational' images, that help me decide what I want to do with my own magazine.
• Complete mock-ups to give me an idea of what I want my magazine to look like.
• Take test shots to use for my draft magazine.
• Fully complete my draft cover page, contents page and double page spread.
