In the same process that I did for my poster, I created a mock up to help me to decide the layout of the components of my magazine cover. I decided to make the main image the most dominant component (around 75%) of the cover from the inspiration of Film Comment magazine where the cover is all focused around the image itself to sell the magazine rather then the cover lines or the magazine title name itself. Although Film Comment is not the most well known film magazine, and the layout is simplistic, by making the masthead take up around 25% (including the cover lines), it will allow my magazine to still look professional.
