First draft of music magazine front cover

This front page follows a purple and white colour scheme that runs through the magazine, all the text on the page is either white or purple. The font of all the text is 'corbel', also following the house theme. The main image is a wide shot, of 'Rihanna' taken of the full body against a brick wall which gives us the background of the whole page. The front cover has two main features on it, one of the main interview with the cover artist and another of the second, smaller, interview with 'Drake'. There is also a list on the front cover, in the bottom right hand corner, comprising of the people who will be featured in this issue of ECHO. There is also a thin strip at the top of the page which details the price of the magazine and a brief introduction to the magazine. I have followed the conventions of XXL magazine fwhilst making this front cover, in doing so i have; made a masthead which stays in the same position throughout each issue, used only three colours (excluding the colours in the image) to make up the features of the front cover, there is only one image and this is of the artist who has the main interview in the magazine and the list detailing the artist that can be found in the magazine.
