Newspaper Design

My favorite is a Texas Newspaper called the San Antonio Express-News because the Headline and the picture are about an important national event and the font and colors are easy to read.

  It is from San Antonio, Texas USA
My favorite headline is 4 are killed, 16 wounded in new Fort Hood horror because its a national event and it catches your eye because it is the first time in 5 years that there's been a shooting at Fort Hood.
There are 6 headlines in my favorite front page newspaper.
They all have stories covering national news, for example that shooting in Fort Hood, and the main picture is the biggest one on the page. The texts and fonts are east to read as well and their name is huge and on the top. They have headlines to go along with their pictures.
Some focus on one main story while other focus on other smaller stories. They will all have different fonts and different titles for their newspapers.

Magazine Covers

Early Magazine Cover

Cosmopolitan, published 1893, shows a commonly used way that magazines of his period used the cover to show the table of contents, a cover line or two, and the name of the magazine.

The Poster Cover

Rolling Spirit published January 2001. This cover doesn't need flashy headlines or hooks to catch the reader's attention. The reader is automatically wanting to learn more of George Harrison's death. It's an intriguing method of publication. 

  married to type

This late 1972 issue of Vogue, has so many words that distracts from the cover photo. Vogue even underlined certain sentences, as if to say " This is important, You have to read this!! " For me, personally, there are just way too many words.

In The Forest Of Words

This Guitar World published in August 1992 is just completely engulfed in words, designed specifically to catch the reader's attention, telling the reader that information is a fountain of knowledge in this magazine.

My Self Portrait


I think for the masthead I'm going to put Topman OR Vogue, one of those two.

Magazine Cover Preview - Favorite Cover

New York, November 12, 2013: "The City and the Storm"
Shot on the Wednesday evening after Hurricane Sandy hit, Iwan Baan’s photograph of Manhattan, half aglow and half dark, captured the larger story of a powerful city rendered powerless. A true viral phenomenon, the image became an instant icon of the event—magazine cover that many New Yorkers have saved for posterity. In fact, a poster version was offered for sale by the Museum of Modern Art.
This portrait shows an amazing example of the after-effects that Hurricane Sandy made. The lighting's very cool because it shows half of the city turned on and the other half turned off, which in my point of view I see it like half of the city is sad because of what had done Hurricane Sandy. It almost creates a sort of barrier between one side and the other. It communicates a sense beautiful chaos in the eyes of the reader.
