Magazine cover

I used photoshop to create my magazine cover:

Again, I used a photo from my photoshoot and I changed the colours using Adobe Photoshop. I thought these colours were particularly effective as it contrasts from the "major movies" title and I thought that the colours I chose to highlight the main character (victim, girl) to make her stand out and show the audience that she is the main character in this film.
Similar to my poster, I used Da Fonts.com for my font. My font is called Dirty Play and I used it because it's bold, it's clear to read, it stands out and is the type of font a film magazine would use.



I thought the layout I have chosen is effective and according to my peer feedback, they also think the layout I chose is good, practical, stands out and you can immediately point out that this magazine is going to be about films because of the iconography I have used (the film strip that holds images at the bottom and a scene-cut board). The background image is one from my photoshoot but i've edited it and changed the colours to colours I believe would stand out on a magazine cover. The smaller images I have used are ones I found from Google Images. I didn't use my own original photos because I couldn't find any that suited the purpose of "side stories".
