Colour Scheme

This particular colour scheme has a basic, original theme of the use of black and white. This is frequently used on a magazine for a background and writing on it as it contrasts very well together and is visibly clearer to the reader.

This colour scheme I have chosen is due to the colours as they compliment with each well and can help me get an idea of what a Hip Hop magazine would consists of. Most magazines would use a black background with white typeface/text on. This is due to the colours being neutral and making them appeal to a wider range and variety of audience.

 

The colour scheme is divided cleverly into cool colours and warm relaxing colours. In a Hip Hop magazine it can consists of both appropriately.

The use of warm bright colours is mainly to grab the audience’s attention. However the cool colours are usually colours that have a deep meaning. Most Hip Hop magazines have a combination of red and another colours used throughout the house style of the magazine. This usually conveys either love or hatred on the featured magazine.

I will take into consideration the use of colour to make my magazine more appealing to my target audience.
