Magazine Colour Scheme

Here I have created two colour schemes that I feel I need to add into my magazine based on my analysis and research carried out. They are the conventional colours of red, white, black and an additional colour of orange, founded by my primary research.

The conventional colours red, white and black will be used very frequently in my magazine cover to follow conventions of a horror magazine. These three colours compliment and contrast well together. All three are also neutral colours so would appeal to both genders an overall my target audience.

The use of orange along with black and white could allow the magazine cover to gain some brightness towards the cover. Orange is a neutral colour and stands out very well with black and white. It would also allow red to be contrasted well with it as they are both similar colours and have the same effects.
