Cover Ideas & Research

For my magazine I plan to have a plain background with a large image of my artist (that my double page spread is aboout) being the main focus. I'd like to have my masthead in either black layered behind my image, or a bright colour that matches an element of my photograph. For example, bright red title and bright red lipstick.  

Here is an example of a vogue magazine cover that uses a similar idea. The red of the model's lips tie in with the red on the masthead.











Again in the image below, colours in the model's clothing and the writing are the same shades of pink.
