PRE PRODUCTION: Front cover final draft

As you may know, my magazine is called 'Pixie', and here they are: the summer issue and winter issue.


EDIT 09 / DEC / 2013: I edited the errors in the summer issue of the front cover, including the small 'S' near the main cover line that wasn't meant to be there. I also changed the main cover line font and text, as I felt that the exclamation mark doesn't go with the genre of magazine which my front cover is based upon. The new font is much bolder and easier to read, and the use of italics make it look more 'indie' and unique. I changed it to 'OLD SCHOOL' as it reflects the vintage-inspired, indie fashion often featured in magazines like these, and because it's a recognisable collocation. Additionally, I felt the colours of the first draft weren't warm enough, so I slightly altered the main image with the use of curves as well as lowering the contrast - which gave the photo warmer undertones to reflect the season of the issue.
