Front cover Inspirations

This post is just going to be a brief way of showing where i got some of my ideas from. These pieces helped me choose how to design my own front cover. These aren't all of my inspirations, this is just a conclusion sort of thing to quickly show my main inspirations. 

This particular front cover caught my eye because i liked how it was simplistic but attention to detail. i like how it really focuses on the image, but the sell lines also stand out. I also like the use of color as they contrast very well together and make the masthead look very appealing to me. The font is also very easy to understand and they have used different colours and styles of text, which make it look a lot ore interesting, rather than having just the same font and the same color which would look quiet boring. 

This front cover was the most appealing to me. it caught my eye straight away. I really like the layout of this front cover because it looks very simple but detailed. The image is really good quality, the use of font styles and colours go really well with the style of the magazine. The costume the models have on looks quiet indie, which fits in with my genre, and the title really stands out. These front covers are from the same magazine, but the color of the masthead has changed which i like because it makes each magazine unique, and the clouds link in with the band/artist on the front cover.
