My front cover will include a masthead the top thirds of the page. I will do this in red as I think this will help it stand out and be more prominent to the viewer. It also fits in with my genre and the colour scheme I plan to use for the front cover.
I will be using one main image of my model to cover the full page. I like the look this has better than using multiple images. I will cover the main image slightly with the main sell line which I will put in colours that fit with my colour scheme and in tones that fit with my genre that will have been suggested in questionnaires I will conduct.
The left hand side of the page will be dedicated to the contents in the magazine other than the main feature that will be advertised separately. I will advertise things that I think will entice readers such as popular bands, free posters and festival must haves.
The bottom left third will include essential information such as the barcode, date, issue number and price. These are very important but I will make them small so they do not take up to much attention as they are not an essential attraction. I will also include the magazines website, however I will put it under the masthead in the top right third. The bottom right third will include a puff which may entice readers to buy the magazine. I would do a competition of some sort to win tickets to see a popular band. I would do this as I have seen it in many magazines and it seems to be quite successful.
