For class this week, we had to create our cover for our magazine. Just like the previous spreads I created the cover using Adobe Indesign and the mouse to create the layout along with placing various boxes, text, and images on the front and back cover pages. For the covers I added pictures of road i found online but I modified them and made them my own.
Composition
For the cover I chose the background images of roads to go along with the title of my magazine, "The Road So Far". There were also a few images in my magazine that i created that deal with cars. The color of the text I used on the cover was based on the color of the background image, to make sure the title and text is readable. I arranged the cover the way I did for easy readability of the title and subtitle and style. The things I want the viewer to see are as follows in order, the main image of the car on the road, the title of the magazine, and finally the smaller text or subtitles to pull the reader into the magazine.
Concept
The concept of the cover is to make it simple because what I just really want to communicate to the reader what the magazine is about and the different articles that inside the article. I put teaser text of the most interesting articles on the cover to draw the readers attention and make them open the magazine.
