Magazine practical production: tasks



Research





The main branding logo is written in a san serif font to make it seem as if it is almost hand written. However, the cover lines are written in a serif font to portray the magazine as more sophisticated. In Allure magazines, the brand logo colour typically matches the models clothing or the background and i will incorporate that in my final piece 

Planning

1) On a Word or Google document, plan your main cover line (also called the 'main flash') - this is the main cover story that links to your central image.
Main cover line: 
  • The Best of Beauty 
  • The Beauty of Diversity 
  • The Hair issue 
Image plan:
  • Model: Rhea Vagarwal 
  • Costume: high turtle neck with necklace 
  • Makeup: full coverage makeup 
  • Lighting: natural day light
Coverlines: 
  • Tips for glowing skin 
  • Makeup above the mask 
  • 10 things to do to keep glowy

If i could change one thing it would be the background, I had to edit out a lot to make it a smooth canvas.

Advertising in the 1960s took on a more realistic look.  This change in advertising techniques is seen in the Score Hair Cream advert as it includes real people, minimal illustrations and dramatic visuals that would appeal to the audience.  In post-war British advertising campaigns, representations of women enforce the idea that a woman's place is to be at home; completing house duties. Setting -  in an exotic jungle which evokes Britains colonial past. Costume -  Safari wear, worn by all characters to emphasise the location that the advertise se...
