When working on the magazine plan we knew we wanted Rosie to be on the cover as Rosie has appeared in films before we thought this would attract audiences (star image and power) We wanted Rosie and the masthead to be the focal point, so both had to stand out in their own right. We knew we had to follow certain conventions of a magazine so this meant we had to include a date, a button, a bar-code etc. In the picture below you can see the draft layout we intended to work with.
Where colours were concerned we wanted a bold red colour as it connotes power and will stand out against the other magazines. We decided black,as a background, against the red, would compliment it best and also it ties in with the professional look of the magazine.

Then working on the actual content of the magazine we wanted the text to include words that would catch the readers eye such as 'greatest' and 'world exclusive'
The picture we used also had to tie in with the colour scheme we wanted her to reflect the distress and fear black connotes so we had her pose with a extremely frightened facial expression to further reinforce the genre of our trailer.
