Front Covers

 Front Covers

As said previously within my last blog posts Front covers is what attracts the audience. The picture, the font, the words and the segments that are going to be discussed all are placed on the front page. According to Famous Magazines around the world there are "10 golden rules" that they follow to have a perfect cover.

According to Flipsnackblog.com, they asked and showed us what these rules where.

"1. Put the magazine name in the most obvious Place"

"2. Be consistent in your template for your magazine"

"3. Work with a Grid"

"4. Decide on a focus Point and build around it."

"5. Play with Font styles."

"6. Emphasize powerful words."

"7. Infuse your magazine design with a healthy dose of color and contrast." 

"8. Place a portrait on the Cover"

"9. Avoid busy backgrounds."

"10.  Go for illustrations."

I will be incorporating these elements in Uptown Teen Magazine Front Cover drafts and final product.
