Colours and connotations used in magazine
Due to my results from my questionnaire, I had a response of having a mixture of bright and dark colours so I have decided to have light, but dark neon dust colours to cause a contrast. I was going to use photoshop to see if I can merge a couple of colours together. So I can use it as a background behind my singers.
Connotations of the colours:
Green- hope, envy, jealousy, peace, health, healing
Black- danger, death, sophistication, elegants, dominant, mystery
Yellow- Sunshine, happiness, warmth, spiritual, joy, intellectual
Purple- hope, royal, spiritual, magical, luxury, nobility, ambition
Orange- enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, encouragement
Pink- feminine, bouncy, pretty, bubbly, fruity, flirtatious, kindness, empathy
Red- Danger, passion, lust, love, anger, pain, war, energy, strength, desire
Blue- cleanliness, cold/ warmth, pain, purity, tranquility, calm
If this goes well, my magazine won't be stereotyping anyone with the colours that follow it. So I won't have just one colour because that would be bias and it's what my audience want.
