For my front cover of my music magazine I was unsure if I wanted to make it a monochrome image with house style colours added or if I should make it a colourful slightly pop art effect. I edited two different images and decided to make two covers at first to decide which layout I liked the best.
I definitely think that my second draft is better, it looks more individual and stands out against the pop type colours I've used for my conventions. Of course as they are just a draft I have a lot to improve on. I think that the colours need to be more linked and fitting within the certain house style, the kickers and cover lines need to be smaller as they take away something from the main feature article, I need to add on some of the advertising conventions such as the 'ear' or the 'competition' line. I definitely will work on those and keep uploading my drafts to show the changes I make to the draft and to show how I get to my final version of my magazine cover.
