Front Cover Flat Plan

This is what I have decided on for my front cover design, although when it comes to making the magazine the design may be slightly altered the finish product will be somewhat and extension of this original design.

I took inspiration from the Vogue front cover which was used in an earlier post, Front Cover Comparison Question. I also like the layout of this magazine as it isn't too busy and looks well put together and clean.

Furthermore I decided to only have a small section of the page dedicated to sell lines as I feel like these could be too overpowering on a fashion magazine as the main focus should actually be the model/fashion.

The main sell line I plan to have in a different color and font to the rest of the text to allow it to stand out to the reader, The main sell line will be short and simple, yet insightful. The sell line will obviously be related to the main image as this is what the convention of a magazine typically is.

The mast head will be strapped across the top of the page however I haven't yet decided weather it will be in front of behind the model, Unfortunately I won't be able to enclose this information until my photography is complete at a later date. Underneath the mast head there will be an issue number/date which will help clarify when the magazine is released so that the theme of the magazine will be suited to the season.

In the bottom right corner the barcode and price will be situated to the right of the sell line, I have decided to do this as I feel like this particular information is quite unimportant therefore the reader should typically read the bottom right corner last.

I am yet to decide what the theme will be as I haven't yet picked my model, location or color scheme.
