MAGAZINE COVER DEVLOPMENT

This is our initial design for "Empire" magazine, featuring a masthead, tagline, and various film titles relating to the horror genre in different fonts to act as logos for the films. We kept a fairly neutral tone to the design to tie everything together and give a more professional appearance after researching existing magazine covers. To further add realism, we have included a bar code, date, and sticker-like object. The main cast photos were taken from a second shoot that was developed from our first initial shoot ideas, shot in the college photography studio, in more appropriate costumes. Layering was used between the character shots to relate to the supernatural element/story line featured in our movie trailer. To improve the cover, we think we could add sub-titles to annotate and describe the films promoted in the issue. Also, a bigger variety of fonts could be used to differentiate each film. A price would also benefit the next design, to further appear realistic to the audience.
