To find the appropriate location and size for the masthead I took the masthead and placed it on a plain white document. I took an existing Empire cover and placed it over the masthead. This completely covered the masthead. I made the cover 50% transparent which revealed the masthead underneath that I am going to use for my cover. This then allowed me to organise my masthead in the proper position and is the starter for making my magazine.
However whilst doing this I thought about colour scheme for my magazine and decided on a few different colour combination that I would like to try to see which one best suits. From looking at other Empire magazines I have found that the masthead has a different colour to help accommodate the colour scheme. The colours I intend to use are either:
- Red, black, white and blue
- Green, Black and White
After thinking about this I have thought that the best colour for my Masthead would be black on a contrasting background which would make it stand out and let the audience know immediately who
the magazine is by!
I have managed to find a black masthead which i can use for my magazine. I will experiment with different colours to see which suits it best.
