Color Schemes for Automobile Magazines Now that I have discussed the possible color schemes for almost every possibility of automobile magazine, I believe it would be a good idea to demonstrate some good examples. The examples that I will provide will follow similar guidelines to the ones that I included in my previous posts. I will pay close attention to the types of cars and the color schemes that go along with it. I will have three separate posts each corresponding to examples of color schemes for pt 1, pt 2, and pt 3 of my possible automobile color schemes. Daily Driver Magazine  Muscle Car Magazine:

Possible Color Schemes for Automobile Magazine Part 3 Now that I have covered how these specific types of cars can affect the color scheme of the car, it is now time to discuss how other factors can affect the color scheme of the magazine as well. The factors that we discussed were generally based on the genre that a vehicle falls upon, but there are cars that can interchange between categories depending on these other factors: Size of Cars Small Cars: These cars can fall into any genre of cars whether it be daily drivers or supercars. This sets them apart in a wider category of cars and has its own sets of color schemes. Due to the fact that these cars are nimble and essentially lighter than the rest, they give off a less aggressive theme. This can affect the color scheme because less aggressive colors will look more appropriate. This does not mean that my previous analysis of color schemes should be disregarded. If a car is small and also a luxury, it does not me

Possible Color Schemes for Automobile Magazine Part 2 Type of Vehicle Continued Luxury Car: Vehicles such as Lexus and Mercedes would fall under the category of luxury cars. These cars always focus on luxury and appearance. Many luxury cars also focus on performance as well. Due to the "High class" nature of these vehicles, the color scheme that can be used with these cars will vary tremendously to that of daily drivers and muscle carts. The most fitting color schemes for these types of vehicles would be: Silver Background with Gold Text Gold Background with Silver Text Black Background Silver Text Silver Background Black Text White Background Black Text White Background Gold Text Black Background Gold Text Gold Background Black Text Super Cars and Hybrid Cars: This category of cars are at the very top of the car industry.

Automobile Magazine Now that everything regarding color scheme has been established for the fitness magazine, it is now time to do the same for the automobile magazine. The automobile magazine will, however, be very different than that of the fitness magazines. This is because we are dealing with a completely different type of magazine. Cars are inanimate objects, therefore, the process of taking pictures is different than that of fitness magazines. Instead of focusing on the poses and clothing of the picture, we must consider the angles and colors of the vehicles. The size and type of vehicle will also have a great influence on the color scheme of the magazine. I will describe many possibilities in vehicles and establish the best color schemes to match that theme because there are many factors that will affect the color scheme. Possible Color Schemes Car types One very important factor that may affect the color scheme that should be used is the type of car that is being

Color Schemes For Fitness Magazine: Now that I have discussed the color schemes that would fit best with the fitness topic, it would be a good idea to provide an example of similar color schemes in order to get a visual representation. I discussed the ways that clothing and poses can affect the possible color schemes and I described exactly what color schemes could be used for the magazines. Using this information I was able to establish that each clothing and pose used is done with a purpose. That purpose is to set a tone for the magazine and for this reason I made three separate posts in order to dissect the importance of color schemes. Despite what it may seem, color schemes are in fact very important and must be attended to with much precaution. Now that the possibilities have been discussed it is time to show some examples. Examples: This magazine incorporated my strategy of using the color of the outfit for the text. It provides for a much more vivid appearance and w

Possible Color Schemes: Black Fitness Outfits: These types of pictures are particularly popular in the fitness community. The color black is seen as a very popular color choice among all events and scenarios, including in the fitness world. The color black can serve many purposes and can bring about very different results depending on how it is used. The color black is a very aggressive color and therefore would leave for a very aggressive theme. Depending on how it is used it can come with a lot of possibilities when it comes to color schemes. The color black matches with virtually any7 color so it is also another reason why it is a widely sought after color, especially in magazines. The best way to go about a picture that incorporates black clothing would be to complement it with a color that will make the black stand out. These possibilities for color schemes may be: White Background Black Text White Background Yellow Text (Dark yellow possibly even with a hint oran
