cover edits..

This is the photo I have decided to use as the cover of my magazine. I really like the pose the model is doing because she's not taking it too seriously which helps it look like it could be an actual cover for magazines like RockSound and Kerrang! I don't like the colour of the background and think I will edit it so it's black like the covers I have looked at, also I think I will crop it so it's a close up of her face. The space around her is just wasted.







This is the edit of the picture I chose for my cover. I played around with the brightness and contrast on photoshop to make her paler and the background darker.  I managed to get rid of the orange colour of the background. I used a colouring tool to put a red colour over her hair, I think the new colour of her hair helps her fit into to the genre of the magazine. I thought her eyes were too dull and put a blue colour over them to make them stand out.
