Front cover layout Development

This is my front cover layout development page

Reflection: It took me sometime to figure out what I really want for my front cover page. Here below is my experimentation with front cover design, with experimenting different colors and also style of design. Through my experimentation of my front cover page I would say I it is quite a journey as I am also pretty indecisive of which photo I should use for my final front page. Moreover, I enjoyed working on my front cover page as it unleashed my creativity and it is such an opportunity for me to also explore different visual styles. Lastly what engages me the most is that I can learn on the psychology behind design choices and learn how to tailor covers to resonate with specific demographics.

Research on my front cover page:

What similar about these 3 magazine would be the masthead being under the model's appearance. I think it is very visually unique and interesting. Moreover, the direct mode of address is also being used which creates a more inclusive and close relationship towards the audience. therefore, I would want my front cover page to also creates that affect towards my audiences.
