Final Magazine Cover

The Final Magazine had some changes made to it. The first was the location in which it was shot, I changed from the balcony shot, to a shot near stairs there were two reasons I did this. The first reason was that the shot on the balcony made the magazine seem to bright as I had no control over the lighting within the area. Also the picture was better taken near the stairs. The second reason is to do with the connotation of the image, in the background of the magazine I have a image of stairs, the magazine itself is called AIM, therefore the stairs symbolise the climbing to the top metaphor of the magazine.

The text of the of the final product, I decided to stick with the idea of Autumn colours therefore; the mast head, Sub-title and Cover lines are all in browns, oranges and yellows.

The area in which the magazine photo was taken along with the colour of the text add a more sophisticated look to the magazine and add a traditional twist to the front cover.

My model is holding a green folder to give the reader a feel for student life, a fresh image. I also stuck with the idea of the logo at either ends of the masthead and sub-title.
