Some examples of the work I like and which will inspire my own magazine...

Poster style magazines

I particularly like the poster style magazines as they have a very simple, uncluttered design yet in my

opinion are very effective. The main focus is on the image and this is also how I would like mine to appear.

In this case it is very important to take a very good photo and make it appealing to the target audience as this will be their main incentive to buy. I also really like

how the masthead, barcode, date and other such details are contained within a white box along the

top, this makes it look very clean and give the magazines a professional look

Mastheads & Slogos

I particularly like some of those mastheads as they have interesting font styles. I also really like how some of

them overlap the main image on the front, thus making them work very well together. Another feature I like,

and one which I think is effective, are the white on red mastheads. These are very striking and appealing to the eye and help to obtain the potential readers attention. This particular style would also help to create a brand

identity for the magazine.
