Planning Main Product – Colour Palettes

Many of the products that I have analysed have had two main colours for the main objects and then a third colour for things like a kicker or banner so that they stand out for the reader. On the Billboard front cover it uses a colour scheme of pink for the background, yellow, white and black for the main components and then red for the kicker so it stands out. On this magazine the colour pink symbolises that this is a magazine aimed towards women however it’s not a solid pink so it shows us that this convention is being broken. The black font shows us that this is following the design of other pop magazines. This makes it seem somewhat traditional.

This is the Magazine I based my information off of:

Here is the colour palette of this magazine:
