image based magazine covers- the most common magazine cover these magazines use photographs of real life objects on the cover. most often they are one or more people, looking at the camera and smiling. these are mostly found on celebrity and fashion magazines. but it is not always people. sometimes it can be landscape or pets or inanimate objects. illustration based magazine covers- these are the oldest magazine covers, since in the 1800s, photographs were not easily accessable. the most recognizable magazine that still uses illustration based magazine covers in the new yorker. illustration based magazines are mostly used now to show something funny or different. type based magazine covers- they're not as common as the other two but they are used to show shocking news. the big fonts and crazy headlines are used to grab readers attentions and get them to want to read the story in the magazine. handwritten and calligraphy have become more popular within type based magazine covers...

favorite Jessica Fecteau created this Vogue cover with bold lines and angles that traverse the model’s face and hand. Although she executed it digitally, the red and turquoise strips look like face paint with colors that match the masthead. this magazine cover is my favorite because i like the bold colors on the woman's face. to me this says she is a fierce strong and independent woman who can get things done. this is shown by the face the woman is making. the slight head tilt up to me shows like she is confident, especially with her eyes on the camera. i wish that the lines on her was made with real face paint for authenticity but other than that i really like this cover.

1. most of the things i read about in the article regarding manipulation in photos was to either take someone out of a photo/put someone in the photo and to change the appearance of someone. 2. the philosophy for newspapers like the new york times and the washington post are that they only change small physical appearances to enhance/disenhance a person and they don't rearrange people's bodies and heads like other magazines do. other than that, both companies use minimal photoshop.  3. i think photoshopping becomes unethical when big physical changes are made, like changing someones body type or when people are taken out of pictures. i think small things like removing a blemish or changing the lighting of a photo is okay but should be used very cautiously. most unethical: i think this picture is the most unethical because when time magazine published this magazine, it changed the way people viewed oj simpson. and i am not saying he is innocent, but by changing the lightin...
