1. Headings; All of these pages include
a heading. The front page consists of
‘Backstage at the x factor’, the
contents page includes ‘what’s
inside’ and the DPS contains the
heading, ‘X Factor Shockers’. All of
these texts inform the reader of
what the page is going to be about
and this will draw them in. The
headings are also the biggest text on
the page, making them stand out.
Text; All of these pages include some sort of gripping text. The front cover includes
‘No.1 for YouTube exclusives, the contents page has a freebie of ‘Posters’ and the
DPS contains ‘Battle of the bands’ All of these texts are highlighted through their
size and colour which contrasts from the rest of the page.
Mise-en-scene; Each page
consists of a Mise-en-scene.
This is mainly a
white background as all of
the pages are covered with
images and text which
leaves little white spaces.
The way in which each
page is cluttered makes
the target audience more
intrigued as it looks more
visually appealing.
Font; Each page consists of a wide
variety of fonts which makes each text
stand out individually. The font is also
in different colours making it look
more appealing to look at. For
example, on the front cover there is a
mixture of yellow, pink and blue fonts
which matches the font on the
contents page and the DPS.
Images; Each page contains a
range of images. The front cover
includes a main dominant image
which immediately catches the
audiences’ attention. Then, the
contents page includes an
image of the front cover, giving
the reader more information
and the DPS includes lots of
images to make it look visually
appealing.
Colour scheme; All of the magazine has
consistent colours so that the pages
match with the genre. The front page
consists of blue and pink which is
constant throughout the page. This is
also included on the contents page and
the DPS. This is done because the main
theme is X Factor and on X factor, the
main colours are Red and Blue.
