Colour Samples

Here are some samples of colour schemes for my magazine:

The one I have chosen to use is number 2, the blue, black and white colour scheme. Red is very similar to my student magazine and I want to try new colours. Pink would suggest that my magazine is just aimed at girls and that's not the case. Grey would make my magazine look quite dull and it is much too like a newspaper. Blue is a colour that is usually associated with boys, but I can feminise the magazine colour using fonts and the fact that Avril Lavigne is on the cover would make it appeal to both girls and boys.

I've also decided to add yellow to my colour scheme as a contrasting colour. Yellow and dark colours put together suggest 'warning', adding to the rebellious feel of my magazine.
