Here is my completed final design of my front cover. I have added in the date and price of the issue and have created this in black font to stand out upon the green colour of her hair. I have also rotated the text to the right for it to contrast with the unrotated text on the rest of the page; I have also made this text the smallest on the page to follow conventions of a typical magazine and because I feel it holds the least importance as consumers would know where to look if wanting to know the price of my magazine. I have positioned this text in the right corner to fill in this empty space after I had moved 'CLONED TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL'. I have repositioned the cover-lines so they all stand on the left hand of the page- I did this to gain a more organised layout and style on the cover and to also allow their to be space for another cover-line on the right hand side of the page. I have chosen to reference an article which I have presented on my contents page on my front cover- 'UPCOMING TOUR DATES 2012'. I felt that this reference within my magazine would add to my front cover by performing as a persuasive device; I have rotated it fully to the right so it appears down the right hand side of the page to contrast with the other styles of text on the page. I then took out the '//' '.' '-' which I originally was going to situate around each cover-line design as I felt that it was unnecessary and appeared to busy. I then changed the font colour of my tag-line to black to compliment the black font on 'UP COMING..,' and the price and date; I felt that it contrasted with the grey font of the title design also. I kept to the same positioning of the bar code as seen in my first attempt as it filled in an empty space as if I was to put it on the other side it would of covered up the ends of her hair.
