Magazines Part 2

 Image Based-the image based magazine ,has a cover with one or few people on the cover. These magazines use the cover image to draw in the buyers. It is the most common magazine type used.

Illustration Based-this is the least common magazine base used. It is a cover that is hand drawn,or computer drawn on a magazine cover. Companies still often use these to separate themselves from others.

Type Based-these covers are a blank backround with font written text on them.They have no images on them ,making the words powerful and prominent.The main focus is the words so they are always curt and bold.


Concept Based-These magazines are mix of all the types stated above ,and are typically humorous. But since it it is a hybrid of three magazine types it has to formatted right,and easy to understand. 

what is the relationship between words and photos on magazine covers and why is this important? The images are there to tell the story and the words act as a follow up to 100% what the photos are meant to portray.

MY FAVORITE COVER

I'm drawn to this cover because ,though their a lot of color,it is still simple.With Elle Fanning being on the cover ,they had a complete blank versatile human canvas and make it what they want,and that what they.And seeing as this is the spring issue the multi colored flowers in her hair fit this issue of the magazine very well. 
And as for lighting/exposure ,the lighting angle on Elle Fanning's face further livens up the cover.It creates a further contrast between her face the back round ,making her stick out as the vocal point more.
