Magazine front cover

Creating my magazine front cover

I am creating my magazine front cover in the programme Adobe Photoshop. The first thing that I thought about when creating my film magazine front cover was the font that I was going to use for the name of the magazine and the name of the magazine. I looked for different magazine fonts on dafont.com. I looked at different film magazines and looked at the size of fonts and fonts that were used on known film magazines.

The name that I have chosen for my magazine is North East film. I chose my font off dafont.com and the name of the font is imagine font. I started creating my magazine front cover and putting the text onto it. I choose that I wanted the theme of colours to be red and black. This is the start of my magazine;



I choose the name North East because that is where my film is going to be and because i's filming around relatable places to the north east I thought that it was a good name to call my film magazine front cover. Also I think its original because there are not any film magazines that are targeted at a audience in the north east of England. I am going to look at other films that have been made in the north east to advertise on my the front cover of my magazine that I am making.

The next stage of adding to my magazine front cover was that I looked at different institutions that a magazine needs on the front of the cover. I looked at things like webpage address, the issue numbers of a magazine and the price. I then went on to add these three things to the front of my magazine front cover.

For all of my magazine front cover I used the same font to keep consistancy through out my work.I also tried to keep the colour scheme of my work the same to make my magazine relatable to the audience. I added information to my magazine front cover giving insite about what my film is going to be about and different stories after looking at other film magazines to try and make my magazine the same and look like a film magazine. I added other films and inside information on to my magazine front cover to fill up space that I hadn't used and looked quite blank.

This is my final magazine front cover
