first designs of Film magazine front cover

I have started to create my film magazine front cover. I first began by choosing a colour scheme, I chose the colours black, white, dark pink and possibly silver. I then began to design the masthead, I designed three different ones before deciding which one to choose. In all three of the mastheads I have created I have used the colours black and dark pink because these two colours contrast well against each other and make the masthead stand out on the page.

I havent yet chose which masthead I want to keep as I want to see what both of the mastheads look like of the final design of the magazine.

I then started to create the sell lines, I wanted them to stand out on the page and look unique. To achieve this I have made the font bold and put it in different sizes. Personally I think this makes it eye catching on the page. I have also put drop shadows on the lettering to make them stand out even more. I chose to use the colours white and dark pink to inkeep with the masthead but make it slightly different by using white.
