Magazine Mock-ups

Cover: This is the mock layout which i will use when designing my magazine cover. From my research I gathered that the masthead should have a dominating presence on the cover, especially on the top half. I also found that my audience prefers a less formal layout, so everything on the page will overlap the central image and the splash will be rotated slightly to give it that "non-conforming" feel. These colours in the mock up are just so you can easily tell each part from one another, they are NOT a representation of the colour scheme I will use in my design, this is purely for layout purposes.

Contents: My contents page has a heavy focus on the double page spread article, the image to the left which will relate to this article takes up about a third of the entire contents page. The layout, while perhaps appearing more formal than the front cover, still follows an informal apprach. Many things will overlap, as you can see in the image above the word contents overlaps the actual contents box.

Double page spread to follow soon
