Front Cover Evaluation.

I do not think that my front cover is very good at all. Some reasons for this are that i have never used photoshop before, so my skills are very limited when it came to designing the front cover on photoshop and when i designed my front cover i did not have a very creative eye, so i didnt really think about a certain styles that would run through the magazine, i basically just went for random colours and fonts, which looking at my front cover now has in my oppinion just made it look a mess, so i now know that in future i need to really think about the certain style ( colours of font, styles of font etc) that i want to run thorugh my magazine. I think that i could have changed the colours of my font to the three colours featured on the models t-shirt because then itperhaps would have looked a bit better and i would have had some sort of style.

 This is the image that i used for my front cover. I think the good aspect of the image is that the t-shirt that the model is wearing in the picture has the brand name dispalyed but however not very clearly. So i need to change the positioning of the model so i can see the main feature clearly.

The lighting in the picture is not fantastic, it distracts you from the main feature of the image in my oppinion, so i need to work on the postioning of the model in the sense of lighting, i think i should take the picture in a different place, for example in the college tv studio as i took this picture at home.






This is the font that i used and designed on dafont.com. I designed this particular font because i liked how it was very bold and seems to make a statement, which also i think ties in with the fashion theme because the idea of fashion is to make a statement, so i do think that this is one of the aspects of my magazine that actually went well.
