Film Magazine Cover Inspiration

                 


















During some extensive film magazine research, I came across this 'Skyfall' front cover.The simplicity and the contrast of colour is very striking and draws the audience's attention and therefore, this cover became my inspiration.Originally, I thought I needed to keep everything in black and white apart from the Masthead so that I capture the simplistic/bold colour scheme and contrast, but also, draw attention to the name of the magazine by applying a vibrant red. However, I realised that my image is not iconic enough to portray the genre and so I needed the additional design element and use of the colour red. The connotations of red describe the genre of the film further and help the magazine cover stand out more.
