What my main image is going to be

I am thinking that my main image on my front cover will be an image of a drummer, holding drum sticks in front of their face to represent my main theme of: Soft Rock

Thinking of main image

I need to think about:
Placement of the masthead
Shot distance
Placement of text over image
Background (if any)
Who's actually on the front cover
Lighting
How many people
If its appopriate with my chosen genre
Use of props
Location/Setting- Interior or Exterior
Clothing/Costume
Camera Angle
Colour Scheme
Composition
Model Position
Genre of magazine
Representation
Pose
Number of shots
