Magazine Cover Analysis

3. My completed magazine front cover
denotes a mid-shot of a white man with
long, black hair looking slightly past the
viewer.
There is a bold, red title, accompanied
by smaller yellow, blue, white and grey
cover lines.
There is yellow puff to the left of the
man‟s face.
The headline is large and bold.
4. This cover was heavily based on the
January 2012 cover of Empire, featuring
the film “The Dark Knight Rises”.
I felt the colour scheme and layout
would suit my own magazine more than
my previous attempts.
5. The actor‟s head covers part of the title, as is
conventional within movie magazines. As my
magazine is on issue #245, it will have a
loyal, established group of readers and be
recognised by the public, so this effect will not
alienate anyone.
