2.     These are the two original pictures that I used
                       to make my magazine cover.
        Hilary Duff    Background

3.   a) What qualities of your magazine cover make it effective? (eg. What makes it eye catching?, What about it promotes curiosity?, How is it visually pleasing?, What makes it easy to understand?)

My magazine cover is effective because of many reasons. First of all it looks so real that no one would’ve known that I used Hilary Duff’s picture in #2. Secondly the realistic colour of her features and the soft green background makes it eye catching and visually pleasing. It is strong enough to catch an eye of a person while being friendly to the eyes. The picture of Hilary Duff on the cover has an expression that promotes curiosity. When the magazine is in a stand and people see a well-known celebrity’s face they stop and see what the headline is. Finally the “uniformed” colours or font colours of the story title and the secondary story title makes it easy to understand. They make it easier to understand because it draws the eyes easily to the story, it doesn’t make them confused about the top story from the secondary story.

     b)What was the order of hierarchy you were trying to achieve for the elements on your  magazine cover?

The order of hierarchy the I was trying to achieve for the elements of my magazine cover are:

1) Hilary Duff (picure)
1) Dulcinee (magazine title)

2) “Hilary Duff THE ACCEPTABLE FACE……” Story title
2) “195+ SPRING’S BEST FASHION AND….” Secondary Story line

3) “INSIDER SKIN CARE SECRETS….” Additional story.
