3 inspirational texts;

This is my favourite cover. Mainly because the centered image is adele and i am a huge fan of her music but also because of the simplicity of the cover. I love that this particular magazine has only used one image, i think this makes the piece effective because the image is large and close up. I also like the simplicity of the colours, black, red and white. The ideas i intend to take and use in my magazine is the large centered image and the idea of 2 or 3 primary colours so they dont clash and look over the top.

Although this is a celebrity magazine rather than a music magazine, i love the layout and feel i could interpret some ideas into my magazine. Ok magazine is one of my favourite magazines and i am always drawn to the cover because of the bold colours and use of images. This magazine has chosen to use more than one image although one (the main story) is larger than the rest. I like this idea and i intend to use it on my cover, however my main image will be centered with the smaller images surrounding it.

I always love the cover of NME magazine because it always tries a different layout. This particular issue caught my attention because of the big, bold title in the centre, that cuts through the images. I also love that the NME logo is always large, i intend to make my logo big and eye-catching like this one. I also like the idea of the circle in the top-right corner that tells us important features of the issue, it gives the magazine something extra. I think i will use this idea on my cover, but perhaps use a different shape.
