«Your task now is to make a cover (a front page) for your very own magazine.
- Go through the Graphic Design history timeline and choose a style and designer that you feel relates best to your personality.
- Using that designer and style as inspiration, use your name or part of your name and create a title/name for your magazine. Feel free to be creative!
- Add your own pictures, text, illustrations, elements, as well as the proper typography and titles for your cover.
- The expression must represent your personality (remember the color choice regarding this).
- Remember to include what kind of magazine it is, for example cars/bikes, fashion, design, weddings, etc.»
I have used Andy Warhol’s art from the pop art movement as inspiration for this cover. I appreciate bold type and contrasting colors. The magazine is a «music themed -gossip- type»
Tutor’s feedback told me to reduce the amount of color on headings, so I removed the red. I kept the red dice for functional purposes.
First attempt vs. final version:
