First Draft of Magazine covers

These drafts are my very first attemtps at creating covers, I am currently semi-satisfied with the layout and disastisfied with the the colour schemes, I am happy with how my original pictures and photoshopping of these has come out but I may still make a few changes. I am also planning onto doing more research on what fonts to use. The main obstacle for me is the selection of the colour schemes, as the pictures I have chosen have quite a lot of different colours meaning a lot of the colours I try to use overlap, and thus become invisible on top of my picture. I am also struggling with the tricky parts of photoshop, and I am learning how to use the clone stamp stool in order to remove details that are unnecessarey such as a plant or table with cups on my covers. ( see post with pictures with the original images for comparison ) I have also been introduced to the website/online part of the coursework, and I am planning onto adding potential links to my website and pseudo social media accounts held by IDEM that I will add on the cover.
