  Analysing Magazine FrontCovers This Magazine’s main image is of an artist called “Paramore’. In this image she is a young women wearing a yellow sleeveless top. The focus of the image is a mid shot, this tells us she’s the main story of the magazine. Her head is tilted to one side and her arm is leaning over her head. The artist is directly looking at the camera which could tell us she’s trying to communicate a message. The artist is positioned more to the right of the magazine and the text is surrounding her in a fashionable way. Main Image

  Analysing Magazine FrontCovers The title of this magazine is called ‘Billboard’. Every Billboard magazine has it’s title at the top of the page. Billboard always have 4 different types of colors in their title, red, orange, blue and green. Using colour on a title will make the magazine stand out from the rest. A famous idol is always covering part of the tile, this could suggest that the idol is more important than the magazine company. There is a variety of different font styles and sizes depending on the cover line. For example Lady GaGa is in bold black capitals suggesting she is the biggest story in the magazine. Masthead

  Analysing Magazine FrontCovers The cover line titles of this magazine are all about people who are famous in the music industry. There are articles down the sides of the magazine, left and right. The articles never cover up the main image, the articles are always organized and spread out evenly. The font size and style depends on the article, as in, if the article is on the person who is in the main image their article font would be big, bold and be possibly in an outstanding colour so you would easily see it, if you were standing from a distance.

  Analysing Contents Page Thelayout of this magazine is layout with one main image on the far right, a small sub image on the left third and the writing is presented in a column. The writing on the contents page is presented so it surrounds the main image. I would say this contents page is quite bland as there is only on eye catching colour, pink, and its only used in the title and to number the different pages. The main image is in black and white so therefore doesn't’t grab much attention. Layout

  Masthead- The mastheadis the biggest most boldest typography this is because it is the name of the artist the interview was about ‘Nicki Minaj’. The pink also portrays the image of Nicki Minaj as she always has pink album covers and pink makeup or accessories, for example her lipstick in this picture is pink which ties in with the font colour and background colour.
