In this blog post, I will be discussing my drafts for my magazine cover. I have created two to decide on. I used Canva to create both of my magazine cover drafts. I found it very easy to use because I am familiar with Canva and I have created projects on it before. They both have the same photo and the same text but different fonts and colors. I think I have an idea of which one I will end up using but I think they may need some changes depending on the critique I will receive in the future. I am proud of my drafts and I think they are very close to being perfect.
First draft:

I really like the colors I used for this draft because it shows a more young female vibe and it would most likely attract young females to read the magazine because the colors are very appealing.
The colors in this first draft are also very vibrant and help keep the attention of the reader.
The fonts I used are very clear to read and easy to understand.
I like the sizing of the text in this draft because it is very eye-catching and keeps the attention of the reader.
Second Draft:

This draft is a more laid-back magazine cover that doesn't catch the attention of the reader.
The color choices are very boring and don't match the vibe of the target audience since the target audience is young females and young females usually have a fun, bright-colored vibe.
The fonts on this draft are not as clear and confuse the reader making them not attracted to read the magazine.
This magazine looks like it is meant to be for both genders because of the mood and vibe even though it is meant for young females only.
In conclusion, I like both of the drafts I created for the magazine cover. I think they both have very different vibes because of the colors and fonts. I am liking the first draft I shared because the colors are very vibrant and girly whereas the second one is bland. The second one is shown as a more gender-neutral magazine cover when my magazine is targeted at young females. The first one shows a more female vibe which would attract more young females to read the magazine because of the fun bright colors. I think I will end up using the first draft I shared but I do believe changes can be made to perfect it.
