Assignment #1-Magazine Cover
Questions & Answers
1.What qualities of your magazine cover makes it effective?
The things that make my magazine cover effective is the choice of colour that I used to produce it. I used bright and strong colours in my texts, so that it would stand out from the blue and black background. I made sure that I used any empty spaces on the cover. But at the same time, I made sure that I didn’t it look too congested. Overall, my use of space, size, colour, and texture has made my magzine look more eye-catching, yet professional by a little touch of everything. It has that interesting appeal. That is why my magazine cover looks very effective.
