I realised that my front cover was a bit dull and neutral with the colours. So I decided to inject some new colour into it. Since my research shown that red was a popular colours, but it didn't work well as my main colour, I decided to just have the word 'ALL' in red. It puts emphasis onto the word which is good and also makes my magazine already look more colourful.
Also, my anchorage text wasn't very conventional before, so I looked at other rock front covers and realised that the pull quote was often on the top of the artists name, in a handwritten looking font. The artists name was the biggest text and stretched from one side of the magazine to the other, and a little summary of the article was placed below in a small font.
What else I changed was I moved my bar code higher up the page and this fits nicely there. This was done to allow me to stretch my banner across the whole page at the bottom, which the bar code previously disallowed me do.
