Final Front Cover

This is my final front cover, I chose some suitable plugs for my target audience with recent music acts so that will entice them as this targets people who like new music, with a free download which should also attract them as they are teenagers who would think that a free download it really good.

I choose the masthead to be yellow as it’s a stand out colour and the purple as it compliments the yellow and appeals to the target audience because its quite girly and looks good to the eye.
My picture takes up the whole page as it is a strong pose and doesn’t need anymore pictures around it otherwise it would look too much.
