The first thing I wanted to do when starting to create my front cover (after choosing my photo) was to choose an appropriate font and colour for my masthead. As my target audience who answered suggested, my colour scheme for the magazine was red, white and back. Due to my models hair being dark brown/black I knew it would be a bad idea to also have my masthead black as the writing would be unclear. Therefore I decided my two colours to choose from were red and white (as shown above.) Eventually I decided on the red as I believed it portrayed the genre of a music magazine more, whereas I found the white, with red background, gave the impression that the magazine would be a gossip magazine. However I decided on a slightly darker red than I'd originally planned (original colour is the background of the white masthead) and the reasoning behind this was because it then matched the lipstick of my model which portrays that she is a part of my magazine.
