movie magazine cover construction

This is the start of my magazine cover i had taken my chosen picture now i trying different fonts and colours  to see which best fits .
 I decided to use yellow as my chosen font with a drop shadow added to the font to make it easier to read and helps it stand out on the page.











I then used dafont.com to get my chosen font for my masthead .





i then edited my masthead added red into it to match the theme of horror and it matched seamlessly along side the yellow font.









I then took into consideration what real magazine covers include so i added "HORRIFYINGLY GOOD STUFF"  which is memorable and is also a pun to entice the customers as the covers about a horror movie.








I then added a barcode to add a professional look
 to it as all magazine have barcodes on them then i added a film reel along the bottom which i plan to feature new and upcoming movies on.









                                                                                I then added social media icons above the barcode to attract a larger audience along with the price next to the barcode which is typical of a magazine cover.








I then added a red circle to add a puff to attract more people to buy the magazine, which has exclusive content inside it.









                                                                                I then added the name of the movie featured on the cover placing it over the main image so its easily recognizable.                                                                                    





 Lastly i added some new and upcoming films along the bottom in the film reel which i though was original but professional.
