Magazine Front Covers

These magazines will inspire me with what colour schemes, poses and layouts to use for my magazine. From these covers I can tell that red is a popular colour with indie magazines, alongside direct mode of address and eye level shots. High key lighting is used throughout the magazine covers.

Magazine Contents Pages

I can tell from looking at these magazines that I should use 2-3 images on my contents page. I really love the way that Q magazine is set out and so I will try to replicate their style, but in my own way, for my magazine cover.

Magazine Double Page Spread

From looking at these magazines I have decided to create a question and answer style interview, with one image on the right of my magazine, and the text on the left.I have decided this as the majority of the magazines have the dominant image to the left, and I want my magazine to differ from this.
