I decided to make some mock magazine covers so that i could be certain with the style that I wanted for the magazine. These turned out a little differently than from what I had in mind but I'm still very pleased with how they turned out. I kept with the idea of space and vintage all mixed to together, but I did it in a way I had not originally planned. 

My first one I took a picture of David Bowie on the cover of one of his albums, because the background was so clear, it was easy to edit out. However, when it got to editing around him and putting it on the background, it looked a little out of place. So a friend of mine suggested I make it look like pop art and put a white line between him and the background. I really liked the way that looked. I then went on to add the band titles. Whilst playing around with the editing I put a space image over the entire picture. I really liked the way it looked on his dark jacket so I went back and edited stars onto his jacket. I really love this element of the picture as it's subtle (most people didn't notice until I pointed it out) but without it the picture felt like it was missing something.

My second cover looked a little bit move unconventional. I found a picture of child playing a drum and thought that this could be some sort of album cover. In my survey, I asked which would people prefer, an artist on the cover, or album art, and most people picked album art.  

Here are a few over covers I made.
