Knaye West Cover

To create this i used a masking tool

When making the first mood board i chose a specific demografic so that the images i used would appeal to that audience. The images i've chosen are all similar in terms of colour, the colour blue shown in images ofthe sea and the sky, gives a feel of summer (summer = holiday) the hints of vibrant colour appealed to a 'young adult' demographic, whereas when putting together the second mood board i used very nutral, simple colours. I did this as the theme was interior design so i aimed to appeal to a more mature audience.

What's Wrong with Jennifer Aniston

The Title has been slightly cut off at the head of the magazine, 'STYLE' could be moved down.
'angelina' is a name, this should have started with a capital letter, also the style of font is too thin, it should be in bold as it doesnt stand out on the magazine cover.
The colour scheme isnt strict enough (too many different colours), making the magazine cover look unprofessional and childlike
The beige coloured text blends into the background and is uneasy to read
Most of the text around the magazine is too small and the font style makes it even more difficult to read.
All text on the magazine cover needs to be ONE or two fonts.
No ruler used on the outsides of the cover causes the magazine to look untidy and unsophisticated.
