Analysis of colour paletes

Above are some possible colour pallet combinations that I could possibly use when it comes round to making my magazine. I have chosen these colour combinations in the aim to create a colourful yet professional look for my magazine so that it attracts the target market and interests them. In my preliminary work I used the colour pallet of black, red and white. I felt his looked particular good in the way the three colours combine together. However, I am edging towards keeping the magazine using the basic black and white colours as they both go with everything and make the magazine look professional, but adding a third colour into it so that it makes the page bright and attractive for the reader so it matches my target market. That my result me in going for the colour palate of blue, white and black as this will add this dimension to my magazine. When deciding on my colour shame for my magazine I will take into consideration of the colour scheme theories so that that the colours mix well together and make elements of my magazine stand out where I want them too. I feel the colour pallets of white, black and red, blue, white and black, blue and white and black and yellow will make my magazine look vibrant for the reader if I decide to go down that route for my magazine. Also, I feel the colour pallets grey, black and white, white and black and grey and black will give my magazine a sense of professionalism if I decide to go down that theme for my magazine. But I will have to take in consideration that the theme of my magazine is Electronic Dance Music, where the target market is between 16 years to 30 years so for people of this age category to buy the magazine it needs to be exciting. This could persuade me to go for the vibrant colour pallets.
