Empire front covers: Colour palette the choice of colour palette in Empire magazines is based off of the main image, there are typically 3 colours. Masthead:  the colour of the masthead is chosen in contrast to the main colour scheme usually, black or white. It is in large bold font so it stands out from the rest of the cover. The main image is typically overlapping the masthead, this decision could have been made as they feel their masthead is fairly recognisable and people would not have trouble noticing what brand it is.
