However I ended up selecting my second Magazine Cover design. My reasons were that I felt I had planned this particular design far more intricately, and the concept could be achieved to a higher quality in the time frame set.

The Splash would've been in keeping with the flower power theme of the Main Image, by choosing a flowery, bubbly writing, with the phrase "Sgt Phillip's Lonely Drama Club Band", implying the magazine's main feature focusses on our drama teacher, Ms Leanne Phillips.

The Main Image was inspired by the front cover of The Beatles' 1967 Album "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", but instead of the fab four's faces on the cover, it would have featured main cast & crew members from my schools recent successful production of "Carousel".
My first magazine cover design entitled "Drama Desk", focussed on the arts scene in my school, particularly, as the aforementioned title suggests, drama. A number of they key features of the cover are basic in design, as my aspirations for this cover were beyond that of my drawing capability.
