Colours



White: This is a common colour to use in certain places of the magazine. It will not show up very well over certain backgrounds, this colour would be best to use over a black background.

Black: This is a very common colour to use as it is a big and bold colour, and is easily visible and readable on most backgrounds. despite this, it is not a very eye-catching colour and might not be too appropriate for a sports magazine. I think this may be the best colour to use.

Red: This colour is very bright and eye-catching and would make the magazine look a lot more colourful and appealing. Even though it is eye-catching, it can be quite hard to read over certain coloured backgrounds as it will strain peoples' eyes.


Blue: This is a bold colour to use which will stand out over a few backgrounds, although it can strain peoples' eyes over certain backgrounds.

Green: This is a very bright and eye-catching colour to use, although it will strain peoples' eyes as it is hard to see over bright backgrounds. I am also thinking about having a green background for the magazine, if so it will certainly not be the colour to use.

Yellow: This is another very bright colour which will show up well on dark backgrounds, but not bright ones. It would be a very good colour to use on the front cover.
