Initial Layouts for Magazine Cover

Here are some initial ideas for how we might lay out our cover:

The shot of the main character looking over her shoulder will add an action feel and make it clear that she is under threat / nervous.

The shot of Gabi sleeping would be quite a striking image if we lit it carefully to have a sinister shadow falling on her face and would tie in directly with the film title.

This would be Gabi in full face staring directly at the reader and looking tired / haunted.

All of these designs leave plenty of room for text and all the other functional features of a magazine cover.
