Chosen Front Cover Image


After much deliberation I have decided on a photo to use for the front cover of my magazine. The reason I have chosen this photograph is because firstly I believe that it has an unconventional look because of the way the main focus of the image is the side of Hannah's face and secondly the feeling of attitude and status within the piece. Hannah appears dominant and in control which i believe helps to make the magazine look proffessional and appeal to a slightly older target audience which is extremely important because i believe there is a real niche in teh market for an indie styple magazine aimed at females in their late teens. The brick wall that is the background of the photo does not fit in very well with the indie style theme so i will be cutting the photo out using the magnetic lassoo tool on Photoshop. For the background I will be scanning in a brown coloured parcel wrap and altering the contrast on it so that i turns slightly yellow, this will really make Hannah stand out and help grab the attention of customers.
