Front Cover - Changing and Adding Specific Details

Now that my cover page has been created and edited according to my audience, I need to tweak a few last things and add extra parts to finish the overall product.

Firstly, I am planning on changing the bubble in the middle into a banner with images, because I feel that it is overcrowding the page and it doesn't really look appealing for my target audience. 


As well as this, I have added a barcode and the website links have been moved to the bottom, as they do not look appealing right beside the masthead, and most magazines do not do this. The price has also been added beside these links. Prior to our questionnaire done right at the start by members of our target audience, our group came to the decision that the magazine should cost £2.50 as this is how much most young females are willing to pay for a magazine. 




Also, I need to create the headline for the main feature on the model that is on the cover. I have decided to do this by incorporating a different texture. I have scanned handwriting into Photoshop and edited it to put it on this cover, to give my magazine that extra edge which my audience will find appealing. I have decided to make it blue so that it will stand out from the purple text, and because the use of blue is extremely limited, it will attract the audience because it is a small pop of colour that contrasts with the red and purple. 



Then, I added my subheading for my main feature, and finished everything off.
