Archive for ‘Magazine covers’

Part 1

Design your magazine prototype’s cover.

Your cover should be 8 x 10.5 or other standard size (no white margins).  Your cover should include:

• an updated, final version of your logo
• folio information (date, price, volume # and website)
• a dominant element (image or text)
• an appropriate number of story teasers (make sure they are the appropriate length and content)

Your cover will be evaluated on design and typography principles.

Part 2

Submit three or four typefaces you will use for your publication. Research the typefaces and tell me how you plan to use them.

Fonts in Use maybe helpful and choosing and mixing your typefaces.

Due at midnight on Sunday, Oct. 17.

From Fall Pub Design student Sandra Amstutz: This is something I thought you might find interesting. All of the covers of this year’s Vogue are superimposed on top of each other and then compared with the Vogue’s of other countries.
