We felt a magazine such as Dazed and Confused was the perfect type of youth culture magazine to draw inspiration for our own cover from.
in particular we drew inspiration from their 'youth' issue cover by photographer Hedi Slimane.
We all liked the black and white theme used on the cover and in the photography of Hedi Slimane. This inspired us to come up with the magazine name Noir. Next we used the image from the Dazed cover and our own logo ideas to experiment with mock ups of covers, maintaining the same aesthetic appeal of the dazed and confused cover as well as its youth inspired imagery.
having decided on what the general layout of the cover would be we used the main character from the music video and band member (Myself) as the cover star. When shooting the photo we tried to employ the same sort of chiaroscuro as in Slimane's photograph. The final image can be seen below.
