Constructing My Front Cover

This is the template I will be using to construct my front cover for my magazine, to create a professional look on the final product.

This is my first edit for magazine cover, it is not the final edit because it is too dark which does not create a professional appeal.

A potential first draft of the front cover. A four tone gradient effect is used present the colours of the union jack, due to the magazine being based on the "Brit Awards".

I decided to cut the left model out because the photo taken was a portrait photo when it needed to be landscape, this was a problem because it meant the image had to be stretched which gave it an unoriginal look.
