TV Listings

Here is the template of our soap opera's TV listings page. I use other magazines as an inspiration to frame the shapes and to put the stories into appropriate places where they will grab most attention. the bright colours of the textboxes and the way they are arranged create a very clustered and action packed impression.

This is the template for my magazine cover that i developed off of the 'Whats on TV' magazine:

I tried to create the same impression as the official magazine with the colours and the images. the price-tags are usually quite cheap with these magazines and are repeated a few times to remind the audience.
The images of the magazines which advertise the soap opera's are usually shot of the characters in action, where as the centre picture is always done in front of a green screen to capture mood and emotion with the main story-line. I used photoshop to trace the image and colour in the background which matches the colour of the word document.
