NEW FRONT COVER!
Overall, I am much more pleased with this result than my first attempt. I feel it is instantly more eye catching and you are able to take everything in, in comparison to my last attempts which was hard to follow and you found yourself really having to focus on reading the information. To see how I achieved this will be stated below:-
-Took a new feature article photo with a high quality camera, this reuslted in a much clearer resolution really displaying her facial expression. I choose her to make a rock and roll scrunched up face as I wanted the image to appeal to my bold, edgy and individual readership. Yet still needed it to follow conventions unlike before, so I made it a portrait close up with her eyes making eye contact to the camera aka the readers to draw them in and I positioned the image to the right hand side of the page therefore subconsioulsy making the reader wish to turn over.
-I reigned in my colour scheme alot more to only green,yellow and red ( the rustafarien colours) as it connotes a very chilled yet vibrant atmopshere like the rustafarien culture. Also I purposely chose the header to be in the promonent colour of green. This is due to the shade being linked to nature and my magazine is essentially a festival based one so it will subtely empahsise that more. The overall appearence I feel is alot more astetically pleasing to the eye due to the colours, my font choice changes from the exsentric bubble fonts in my last magazine I now changed them to simple times new roman and arial to not overwhelm the readers. Aswell as the important must read text I added a glow effect to make it stand out and accessable to read over the other information on the page.
