Front Cover Deconstruction

Text/font
The font on this magazine front cover is large, bold, serif font. This gives the magazine a look that is bust but not cluttered. I think I will use this in my magazine, however I want to use a little sans-serif font for the main sell line. I also like how they have the email address at the bottom of the page, I will use this as well.
Colour
There is very basic colour, only 3 colours used but I think it looks very effective and professional. I'm thinking about using the same colour scheme on my front cover as it appeals to all ages and all genders. I think the black and white image is very interesting and it makes the magazine different as most use a colour image for the front cover. I will consider using this idea.
Framing/composition
I think the framing of this front cover looks reasonably ok, however I don't like how part of his hat has been cropped out, I don't think it looks right. I do like how the text is over the top of the models had though, I will use this technique in my magazine planning.

  1. Good - well done on relating this deconstruction back to your own product.
