Social network

On my front cover i have added my magazines instagram and twitter on the cover, as the audience i am targeting is the generation that mostly spend their time on social media and the internet.

I got these two icons off the internet then used the magic wand tool on photoshop to remove the backgrounds.

Magazine masthead

My magazine is called billboard, after the billboard charts. I thought this was appropriate because these charts only have the genres of rap and hip-hop, and that is essentially what my magazine will be about.
The colour of my masthead as shown is red, it is red because its a bright stand out colour and also is the colour of passion/love and danger which is what these genres of hip-hop and rap can be associated with.

























As you can see here these are the effects I've used to get my masthead this way.
