This magazine cover has three men all looking straight ahead. It is very simple yet effective. It gives them the sense of power and superiority over the reader. However, I do not think this kind of pose is one I will use for my front cover. This is because although it looks good I do not think it will work for the type of magazine I am making.
This one is very different in many ways from the above. Even though it has three men on the cover the whole structure is different. This one has a more lively colour and has a fun look about it where as the above was very serious. The picture has also been photoshoped a lot and made brighter which makes it look happier. The poses they are doing are lively which is what I want my 'band' to be like.
This is one of the only front covers that have a girl only group on the cover. I do not want my band to look like this as I feel it does not have the same effect as the picture above. You do not get the sense they are having fun or a very happy vibe from it. However, some of the characters have very good facial features that I want to use. For example the one on the left hand side has good facial features that are different from most. I will try and merge both this picture and the one above when taking my photos so it will look as though they will be having fun.
