Planning Activities-Cover Design Template

For our cover, in the process of choosing our magazine title, we brainstormed both one-word and two-word ideas that included either "wellness" or "fitness". As we discussed the ideas, we began to add in our location, giving root to the magazine; titles included, "'Sota Wellness" and "'Sota Fitness"; we ended up agreeing on "'Sota Wellness". Additionally, we have chosen to use a font entitled "Eras Medium ITC" because it is similar to that of other health and wellness magazines; this font is an identifier for what genre each magazine is. Since each issue will appear in a different month, every group member has chosen a color that could resemble that month and the season in which it is published. Being published in January, my magazine title is colored a faint dark red; this shows that Christmas has passed and that it is time for the new year. Also, this color makes it known that the seasons are transitioning from dark and cold, to bright and warm. Furthermore, our cover model will be centered and cover a portion of the "W" and "E" in "'Sota Wellness", which is similar to the positioning of the cover models on Shape, Women's Health, Men's Health, Self, and Health magazines. Continually, the left and right sides surrounding the model will have written bits about what has been published in the month's issue, but the bits will only be about what I find to of the most importance for this issue. As a final product, it will appear brighter, as the new year is supposed to be brighter than the previous, and it will be a piece that encourages health and wellness.
