Colour scheme for my magazine.

For my magazine, I have used a mixture of colours to convey different feelings and give out a sense of meeting the target audience. The large headline, gives out a sense of danger, with the contrasting colours of red and black, which often signifies danger. Furthermore, I use more of the colour red, which contrasts into the magazine front cover. The bright colours used also signify a younger and much wider target audience, linking into the audience that I am looking to target. However, the bright colours are also there to attract potential customers, when they are browsing through the shelves. Most of the writing that I use is black, giving the magazine a much more serious look.  Overall, the mixture of dark and bright colours adds effect to the magazine front cover, as it gives out a mixture of views. As mentioned, the darkness, gives out a more serious outlook for the magazine, whereas in comparison, the bright colours give a nice fresh outlook, linking into the younger target audience.
