This is the front cover to my independent film festival magazine 'FestiFilm'. I chose this name as it's a film festival magazine I combined the words 'festival' and 'film' to make the name 'FestiFilm'. I decided to use the actress on the cover rather than 'the character' as if they were on press tour. I think this is more effective for an independent magazine and similar to the magazine 'Sight and Sound' which I chose to use for my guidance.
I think this makes the magazine more interesting and personal as well as more professional and chic.
I used photoshop to make and edit my magazine cover as I had easy access to this in school and I was familiar with the software.
As the name of our film, Forget Me Not, is also a type of flower, I have used the flower on the cover to almost make the flower a symbol for the film, I also decided to use the colour of the flower as the colour for the magazine to contrast with the black and white image of Chrissy. I wanted my poster to look simple but sophisticated so using only a soft blue stopped any detraction from the main photograph.
