Research: Colour theme in magazines

Colour themes

I have selected a few entertainment magazines to compare the the look and colour themes. I chosen Take a Break, Whats on TV, Inside soap and OK!.

This is just a range of entertainment magazines and as you can see these magazines use a red and white colours for their masthead. This is a colour that I will be staying away from as this colours are really common for mastheads in other magazines too. The colour themes that are used in magazines and other magazines do contrast really well e.g red and yellow and orange, blue. This means that I will be choosing what will work well together but are not over used in other magazines.
