Examples of Magazines

Here are some carefully selected magazines, that I have picked out to inspire me when making my magazine. They are somewhat similar to the genera and theme of magazine I would like to create. What attracts me most about these magazines is their vibrant colour and contrast. The magazines which feature Debbie Harry on the cover I see as having a lot of attitude. Their vintage and retro feel gives a contrast to my main colour palette of pastel light colours.

Here is my mood board for ideas of my magazine project. I have chosen a vintage, retro and qerky feel for my magazine. The images used below I have selected specifically as they represent aspects of my magazine. I want my magazine to have a vintage feel to it, so I chose schemes of colours to be pastel blue, cream and pink. I also wanted to have a contrast, so I looked at the colour scheme red, black and white. I chose 3 colour schemes to keep both ideas simple yet bold and easy to see. The NME pictures on the mood board, represent the look of my magazine. Although, these are much more modern, I want to vintage them up a little to match my magazine ideas.
