Colour Scheme Mood Board

I have created a mood board displaying the research that I have done regarding the colour scheme I will be using on my music magazine front cover and inside the magazine its self.

When doing my research on colour schemes I looked at different magazine front covers and I looked to see if there were any particular colour scheme on the front covers. I took some of the front covers that I thought had either interesting or similar colour schemes to what I want to have for my music magazine. I took these images and added them to my mood board.

I also looked at some colour charts to see what colored went well together and then I decided whether or not they would go with the genre of magazine I am going to create. 

I have decided that when designing my magazine that I want to stick to three or four main colours. I will have three or four main colors on the front cover, contents page and double page spread. For example I might have red, black and grey on the front cover of my magazine butt on the double page spread I might make it be black, grey, white and lilac. I am only going to use three or four main colors because I don't my magazine to look too busy and tacky, I also want it to look good and be easy for my readers to look at and understand.

I will have a certain colour scheme for my double page spread which will be different to the rest of the magazine as I want my colour choices to reflect the artists style and genre and I want it to be obvious that this is the main article within the magazine.
