15/02/2011 FINAL FRONT COVER



This is my front cover and I am really pleased with the outcome! Since the previous post I have slightly altered the artist's title as I did not like the black outline around the yellow text. I changed this to white so that it stands out much more. I have included my research below and how it has been relevant to my final front cover.


My Research shows that the font used is in block capitals and the  colours used are yellow, white and black. From this, I have used these colours and the style in which the text is created, I have altered it slightly for the title on my own front cover. I have used black blocks and placed on behind every other letter to create a kind of punk type font.


I have print screened an image from my research and the final photograph used for the front cover. Although they have different poses they are both similar and create attitude. The model that I used has eyeliner on but it is not as dark as the model on the right. They both have straight hair which sticks out and they both have a pale complexion.

From my earlier magazine research, I came across a punk/rock magazine called 'Big Cheese' and I really liked the way that the bands name was placed in the middle of the image on top of it and the speech underneath it. I placed the artist's name across the image of her to emphasise it and then put some dialogue in speech marks underneath it which I plan to link to the double spread about her. I think that it will attract the reader and it is quite a bold statement and could therefore portray the attitude of the artist.
