New Colour Scheme

Upon creating my original colour scheme, I went on to ask my
target audience for their opinions. Despite my audience's intial
thoughts of pinks and blues, they told me that they'd be interested
to see the use of brighter, bolder, darker colours. To maintain the
pop feel i chose black, white, yellow and red.

Colour Scheme


For my colour scheme, I have chosen a pale pink colour for the background as it was a popular choice for Billboard magazine colours with female artists. I have also chosen the three most common text colours used by Billboard; yellow, white and black.

Magazine Colour Scheme Inspiration



I created a mood board of six Billboard magazine covers for my magazine colour scheme inspiration. Each of these backgrounds is a bright colour, with the exception of the magazine cover on the bottom right. I included that front cover in my mood board as I like the faded colour style that has been used. Pink and blue are the two most common background colours in this mood board. The clothing colours contrast with the background colour, with an exception of the top right front cover where the artist's dress is a similar colour to the background, nevertheless she still stands out. The text colours consist of mostly yellow, white and black, however, there is also some pink and red text used.
