4. What I learnt on my front cover
analysis…
• I learnt that it is a good idea to have a big picture
taking up a lot of the space as it gives your
magazine a big statement.
• It is also a good idea to include bands relevant
to your genre as it gives the audience an idea of
what you magazine will include.
• The final thing I learnt was that by making your
title stick out people are more likely to read your
magazine, and so it is a good idea to have it in
bold capitals with some sort of effect.
