NEW Not-For-People Magazine Cover Challenge NFPMag-6

January 20th, 2022
You have until February 28 to participate in this challenge. We look forward to your submissions!

Do you want to participate in something fun and creative?

The Not-For-People Magazine Cover challenge is for you!

Create a magazine cover to engage a very unusual audience – something OTHER than people.
Pretend your audience can read, and you must tempt them to get between the pages.

Decide on your audience and create your cover from one of your pictures. Make sure your audience is obvious! Imagination is the key. The possibilities are endless... You may prefer fantasy, but you can use inanimate objects if you like... The dwarves or elves from Lord of the Rings, the monkeys from the Jungle Book, the rabbits in the warren from Watership Down, the dragons of Pern, space aliens, or sweaters with fibers that pill! Draw inspiration from your books, movies, TV shows, or dreams. If you have a beautiful slick magazine lying around, use their cover teasers to warp and twist YOUR teasers to fit your audience.

1. Use standard LETTER SIZE or PORTRAIT format - NOT landscape or square please.
2. Use one of your photos for the cover
3. Create a title for your magazine cover that's inclusive of your chosen audience.
4. Write your teaser headlines to draw in your specific audience. The more teasers you can create - the better! Make them funny or make them daring.
5. Make sure your audience is obvious at a glance! Is it fairies, trolls, ghouls, aliens, gnomes or beds that talk back to you? Be specific.

This challenge will run from January 20 to February 28.

Tag your covers with NFPMag-6.
Hopefully, photos can be seen here – https://365project.org/tags/nfpmag-6

It would be very nice to post your covers here to keep this thread in view.

Here are the links to the two last months’ challenge for examples to fire up your imagination: https://365project.org/tags/nfpmag-4 and https://365project.org/tags/nfpmag-5

Can’t wait to see your clever and creative covers!

@farmreporter I'd love for it to run until the end of February so people have plenty of time to think about it before implementing their idea. I'll change right away. Thanks for reaching out to me :-)
