Boys Life

For my Boy’s Life magazine I used a image of a chef to challenge the stereotypical magazines cover targeted at men as typical men magazines are shown are adventurous, dangerous and has this whole aspect of strength and danger but in mine I made it more tranquil and my cover is a chef because cooking is normally seen as a domestic woman job to do but I wanted to show you can do want you want to do and it doesn’t limited to a man or a woman.

For my colour scheme I put a blue as it is quite calm and relaxing also it works with my image of the chef as he has a dark strip of blue on his jacket and the name on the jacket is of this colour as well. I wanted a not so bold choice of colour as I didn’t want it to be “attacking” to our eyes but it is still noticeable also the chef himself has a nice, calm but warm smile.
