Colour Schemes

 

 

For my colour scheme I took my influences from magazines like Kerrang!, Q and NME and tried to immitate the way they used mostly black and white with one other bold colour to stand out. Like Kerrang! I have shown in the subscription area that the magazine front cover will change colour depending on the type of band but the main colour scheme is black white and blue.

 

 

My current colour scheme

 I chose this colour scheme as I though that the blue worked well with the white and black as it really stood out the way I intended it to and it complimented the hints of red that are present in my front cover from my model.



Alternative colour scheme

I liked this one and it clearly proved popular with a lot of magazines similar to the one I aimed to create however a lot of magazines have this colour scheme so it would not make my magazine seem original or stand out but it did work well with the colours in the photos.

I also liked this colour scheme as it was quite original and the colours complimented each other well but if I did use these colours my magazine would be too dark and would not stand out as well, plus the colours clashed a little with my photos.
