Sci-Fi Research

I order to produce a successful magazine, I need to do some research in to cover ideas. I have a few ideas and here is one of them. My other idea was to make a Sci-Fi style cover and then address men as my target audience. Here are some movie posters, graphics and photographs that remind me of Sci Fi.






Here is a movie poster from the movie "3D Robot Monster".
One feature of this poster is the bright colours. The layout of the page suggests it could be used a double page spread.

                                            


Here is another poster image from "The Lost Kingdom of Athala" This shows the female "star" to have power. I like this image as it doesn't have the central character in the middle of the image.

Here is an iconic image from the film "50 Ft Woman". This is one of my starting points. I like this image as it ties in well with the theme of a fifties pin up star. The fact that there is chaos all around her makes me  feel that the magazine should be chaotic but conto

This images uses lots of different typography to make the image come to life. The fact that the lady is in red suggests sexual images. I wouldn't emulate this as I feel it is too sexual and my target audience is women.




Here is another example of the "50 Ft Woman" idea. I like this image as its set in New York and is classy not crude. Hopefully, my image will look like this or similiar to it.
I hope to emulate something smiliar to this but with a music magazine feel to it. Here, the image suggests sex once again but I don't want it to have this feel. I want it to be authentic but not sexual.  The fact she is stood over a road doesn't have connotations of music which is why for my cover, I will present my model with an instrument of some description. Her expression is crude as well , overall, I do not like this image but it is similiar to something I want to include in it.
