Final Magazine Cover

This is our final magazine cover. As you can see it looks quite a lot different to the plan we had made a couple of weeks back. For starters, we now have a white background instead of black. This is because the images we took were of a brighter background and we though it wouldn't look that great if we cut out the people to put on a black background, so kept it as the white. We have managed to keep the 'Empire' logo which is very effective as it fits perfectly into the cover. The main colours we used were black, white and red as they are very effective on the cover of a magazine. They are easy to read colours and the red also fits in with the horror theme we gave to the magazine.

We made sure we included the necessary items such as dates, prices and barcodes. This is to make it a more realistic product. We included the main article about 'The Unknown' which is promoting our film, but instead of having the main image as the actors, we decided to do it of the crew behind the camera, therefore the people in the image are holding filming equipment that would be used in the actual filming.

I am really happy with how the magazine cover has turned out, at first I was a bit worried that without the black background it wouldn't fit very well, but in actual fact I think it works perfectly.
