Magazine Research from JericksonMagsino
The research that I did with this presentation helped me develop my own style that I later presented within my practice covers. In general, the thing that caught my eye within these chosen examples is that most of them are really simplistic, with not too much going on. The aesthetic for some of them really stands out, especially with the help of the fonts used.
Practice Magazines
Magazine 1
The reason why I chose this layout is because it's simple, aesthetic and there's not too much going on within the background. There are no sell lines, which I really like the look of , because it gives it a more raw look. The name of the model at the bottom is in large font - giving credit to the model used. This could attract more consumers because they may know the model shown. The simplistic colour pallet really appeals to me, making it look more professional and sophisticated.
With the help of a Mockup, this allowed me to see what the magazine would look like if it was developed professionally.
Magazine 2
I decided to try to make a second magazine and develop my style even more. With this one, using a different colour pallet and model really stood out to me compared with the first one as it gives a warmer feel, which is nicer to the eyes. What really helped was the out of focus flower near the front as it gives the cover more character and more depth to it. The Masthead is closer to the top of the magazine and is behind the models head, this allowed me to show the importance of the model but also creating a name behind her.
I personally prefer my second try at making a magazine cover as it draws my attention.
