Name and font ideas for the magazine

 

This is my second mock up of the magazine front cover. I have improved this by using empty space up to make it look more full and exciting, I included a free gift which entices people to buy the magazine. this is because they feel they are getting something extra. I also realised that the magazine required something that explained properly what genre the magazine is so I made that clear with "THE TOP HIP HOP MAGAZINE" I think that this mock up is much better and clearer than the first.

This is the first mock up of my magazine. The Magazine is Hip Hop and this is shown through the image and the strap lines as they include the names of famous hip hop/ rap artists. I picked the name "Revolution" because it connotes the idea of something new, different and unique , which is what hip hop is about. I think I could improve the mock up by including more on the front cover as there is a lot of empty space that would make the magazine look more interesting if it was taken up. I chose the colours as they are very contrasting so stand out to each other and also against the dark background.
