Above is the image that will be the base of my front cover. The background of the image is purple because this
was one of the colours my target audience identified as one of their favourites.

When adding the masthead, I first inserted it using the text tool on the left side of the page. I then changed the
font and added effects to make it stand out.

I then added the positioning statement, price and issue information. Again, I used the text tool to do this. As the
magazine is about rock music, I made the positioning statement fit in with this.

After this, using my sketch of my front cover I added the cover lines. The majority of these are band names
identified by my target audience, used to appeal to the widest possible audience.

Next, I added sub lines explaining what every article was about. I add this text the same way I added all of the
other text on the front cover, using the text tool.

The main cover line was added, this anchors the image. It is the second biggest text on the page.

Then, the sublime for the main cover line was added describing what the article is about.

I added a bar to the bottom of the page. This will hold more band names that were again identified by my target
audience to appeal to a wider audience.

I used my audience research to help decide on the bands that I would include in the bar at the bottom of the cover.

Once the rest of the magazine cover was completed, all that was left to so was add a barcode. I added mine to the
bottom, right corner. This is a common position for barcodes on magazines.
