Front cover analysis HARRYSHORT



 Most of the background in my picture is white so I used a light blue text which stands out for the masthead and cover stories. Again I used a light blue for the banner but gave it a glow around the edge using the effects tool in the shape options. For the flash I used a speech box and placed it in the corner because there wasn't a default shape which looked suitable for a flash. I coloured the flash red so it would stand out more from the light blue house colour, again the writing like in the banner is white because it stands out. If I did I again I would make the shapes e.g. the flash not as blocky and have the text in a darker colour and also bigger in the case of the cover stories.

  1. You're clearly demonstrating an understanding of colour, but your technical analysis should also consider the font types used and what the intended connotations where - as well as how the overall design works to hook the reader's attention etc.
