Mari's Magazine Style


When we first got this assignment, this magazine immediately popped into my head for two reasons; [1] because it'd been on my mind a lot lately and [2] because I really admire the artistic drive behind each issue.  The magazine is a good blend of keeping readers in the know about current games and related things, and also taking the time to make sure that the issue has aesthetic merit.  For that, I hope to model my own magazine around the same principles - while delivering to a slightly older demographic (Game Informer aims for mostly males ages 18 to 34).  The cover of my magazine will also exhibit an illustration that corresponds with a new video game.  The colors will be a bit warmer this issue example though.  However, I want to keep the clean look of the magazine layout - Game Informer tries not to clutter their cover illustrations - by minimizing the presence of the article previews on the cover.
