My favorite cover-
Favorite-
Designer: Arem Duplessis
"This classic Richard Burbridge portrait of Danielle Radcliffe, shot in his trademark heightened black-and-white style, reveals a grown-up Radcliffe not yet at ease with his fame. The extended ascenders and descenders in the typography reference the Harry Potter logo and also serve as a framing device for the image."
The reason i had selected this cover because you don't see much of these type of covers any many see people posting with pounds of makeup on and with bright colors and bright lighting on them and making them look fake or unreal to how they really look. The reason i choose this photo was because how they left him natural and how they didn't really edit the photo they left it as it is and it really brings out his true beauty and that the magazine doesn't really care about looks but true beauty and this communicates that the people really go for the natural look and they use a sorta amount of light in this photo and they exposure a lot of his natural features and composition of his face.
Magazine part 2-
1. Image Based-Is a 3D rendering it captures a real-world light and information from the image using a specialized camera and it is also to use to simulate the lighting for the objects of the project in the scene instead of allowing the highly detailed real-world lighting to be used in the scene but imaged based is high dynamic range images.
2. Illustration Based-It is a decoration and interpretation and or a visual explanation of a text or a concept that is being used in the process and is designed for integration in the media and published such as posters and flyers and books things like this also games and films.
3. Type Based-these types of photos are rare but we still see them around us more then we think we do but we most often see them on illustrated covers these covers tend to really strike and even shocking a lot of people.They have a very powerful way of how they look and how are presented in words there a lot of beauty types and they even send messages much better than photography.
4. Concept Based-These can usually be a mix of all three approaches listed above its best when it is used to present strong messages the main trick to the concept based on magazine covers is that they have to be instantly understandable to the audience and its not easy to achieve when doing this the idea is that you have may be funny and your editor but is it going to be funny to the readers well they get it.
