Front Cover Drafts

For my actual versions of my front cover I decided to keep the basic layout from my google mock up and just replace the picture with one of my original photographs. I chose the version of my google mock up that had the black and white masthead as I think that was the one that looked the best and that worked the best for alternative rock magazine. Once I had replaced the photograph with my own I added more of the conventions of a magazine. I included a plug on this version of my magazine, as I didn't include one on the mock up version, I kept the plug in the same colour scheme as the rest of the magazine. With each version of the magazine I edited it slightly as a way to improve it and find the one that looked the best. In some of the later versions of the front cover I decided to add a 3D effect to the cover star as something that could run as a theme through the photoshoot and the articles on this artist.
