I like now within their
magazine they have used
various styles of fonts.
Tt is usually the case
‘that the title of the page
(in this case the contents
page) is in 3 more stylish
and complicated font than
the rest of the text on
‘the same page. This nelps
to separate the main
information from the
different features of the
magazine-this is also
helped by using bold. It
also directs the eye of
‘the audience to separate
parts of the magazine.
By including things such as ‘features,
regulars and fashion? within the contents
page of their magazine allows the
audience to narrow down their search for
what they may be interested in. Overall,
making it easier for their target
audience to read through their magazine.
Plus, by putting some of the text in bold
and other parts of the text not in bold
helps to highlight key parts of
information that may interest their
audience. I like this personally because
I believe that it makes the magazine
easier to read.The photograph
In my opinion, despite the fact the photograph used
here fills the page I think that this has given the
magazine a good and simple layout which-despite what
many people think is what many audiences are looking
for (something that’s easy to reed). Another thing is
that due to the fact that they have used a mid-snot
for the photograph this enables the viewers a full
image of what the music artist looks like.
The layout
Although the layout to this magazine is simple, I
still believe that it is effective. This is my
opinion becouse I like its simplicity and the fact
that everything is in an order-making it easy to
read. I would use this layout in my magazine however
I would adapt it slightly in order to make the page
more busy-but still keep it simple with colour
schemes and the whole layout.
Colour analysis
I like the colours used
within this page as they
link back to the front
cover, showing that they
are keeping colour
schemes. This is
something I would like
to incorporate into my
own magazine as I
believe it looks smart
and professional. The
way in which they have
used black against the
white background allows
the audience to read the
text with no struggles
and it also creates a
sophisticated look for
this page which I like
and may also incorporate
into my own magazine. I
also feel that the blue
is a nice contrast.

Like how the font comes
across as having more of
@ purpose (to show the
differences betueen
titles and subtitles). 1
like this because I
believe that it separetes
the text into subtitles
and titles more clearly-
overall making it more
visually appealing. Also
I like how the size of
the text catches the
audience’s attention.
This is something that I
will incorporate into my
magazine.
