Examples of Possible Color Schemes for Fitness

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 will gain more attention from the readers. The background was also a very good complement as it allows for the outfit and the woman to stand out.

This is a good example of my statements about the use of black outfits. It is a very common and sought after color and allows for a great amount of customization due to the color's versatility. Not only did this magazine use a white background like I stated in my previous posts, but it used two of the text colors that I recommended for black outfits. This is an idea that I had not really thought about and I am glad I came across this as I now know that I have this option.

This is also a perfect example of what I stated to do for magazines that incorporated shirtless individuals. The white background usually complements the people very well and is why it is the most common background for these poses. This also incorporated two of the colors I suggested and it allowed for a very good contrast in colors.

G reetings, my name is Juan and this is my very first blog post of many more to come! What is my Goal? The reason I created this blog is in order to log my procedures in creating my magazine for AICE Media Studies. I will be posting these blogs on a regular basis in order to accurately explain how I intend to reach my end product (the magazine cover). My blogs will cover things, such as rough drafts, ideas, possible pictures, and essentially my entire thought process in coming up with the magazine. How will this be done? Since this is AICE Media Studies, I will be going about this blog in a very specific manner with specific tasks in order to abide by the rubric. The magazine will consist of a front-page, contents, and a two-page spread. There is also the possibility that I will be working in a group of up to 4 people. If I am to work in a group, each member of the team will be assigned a specific portion or job, all of which will be discussed in more depth later on.

Target Market Research

Target Market: A very important aspect to consider next in my magazine is the demographics. In other words, what is my target audience or the people that will be reading this. This is extremely important because I must make the magazine with the intention of appealing to my target demographic. So if I were to make a magazine on cooking, my target audience will be depending on the content of my magazine. If I were to be doing the magazine on homemade recipes, I would most likely be targeting mothers and fathers, or even those who like to cook at home. The same goes for automotive and fitness magazines. I will have to establish my target audience in order to best meet their needs. These are some examples: These are just 3 examples of how my deduction should be. When I create my magazine I must do a similar idea to this in order to understand my target audience. This, in turn, would help me sell the magazine accordingly. This is because the target audience is one of the most
