Magazine Cover Process


 I started off my magazine cover by adding the basic things like; my masthead, pug, splash, barcode, date, social media links and I started off adding in a few of the sell lines down the left hand side. For my masthead I chose 'Sequence' as I felt like this had a meaningful connotation within the film magazine industry. I chose a blue, black and white theme for my magazine cover as I saw this on other film magazines like; Empire, Total Film and Entertainment Weekly. I felt that this colour scheme looked modern and attractive on the eye. After getting my basic layout finished I moved onto editing and adding in my image that was going to be on the cover of sequence. I decided to go with my initial idea which was Kieran holding a gun in the characters of Fragmented's Jack Hunter. I wanted to keep my background on my image as I had seen this on a few of Empire and Total Films front covers and so I edited it so that the background  faded out to white so that you would be able to see the text in my sell lines as I liked them in black and light blue. Once I had then put my image in and moved it around to fit in the centre I changed my sell lines and made them bigger so that they were easy to read and I am proud of how it turned out.
