3. The broken style of the text on this magazine for the title suggests it’s a rock
magazine.
Panic At The Disco is the main image because the main feature article is
about them, there are also smaller images of other bands such as: Paramore
and Metallica because they have smaller articles, questions or information
about them published in the magazine.
The puff word ‘FREE’ links with the picture of Killswitch Engage because they
are one of the posters in the magazine, there is also a humorous bit of text
underneath the image to encourage the reader to look at the posters.
There are 3 large band names printed above the title which are: Linkin Park,
Lostprophits and Korn, these are other bands that feature in this issue of
Kerrang.
The Buzz word is ‘PLUS’ which is getting the readers attention to read the list
of artists shown on the bottom of the magazine.

> The title is red and has shadows around it
to make it stand out more, but is covered by
slash’ gold top Gibson guitar neck and black
top hat.
> Date underneath the title
> Main image of band member from Guns n’
Roses and one band member from Korn, both
have direct address.
> Extra information
> Main cover line
> There is a puff word on the top left
5. The bold, red text and the extended parts of the ‘H’ and ‘R’ suggest that this
could be a rock or metal magazine. The shine to the title could suggest its
more metal than rock as metal has a shine to it.
Guns n’ Roses and Korn band members are the main image of the magazine
as they both have the main feature articles appearing in that issue. There are
also smaller images of a different front cover for metal hammer magazine,
there is also smaller images of posters that are featured in that issue of Metal
Hammer.
Extra information about the magazine is printed in black and red text on a
black rectangle, which is shown titled on the right hand side.
The puff word on the main cover is ‘CD inside’ which gets the readers
attention as there is a free CD included in the magazine but it isn’t on the
front of the magazine for them to see.

>There is a puff word on the top left
> Positioning statement
> Simple font used for the title, main image over
laps the title.
>Price, issue and date are printed on the ‘R’ of
the title.
> Main image of band member from U2, isn’t
using direct address, looks as if the photograph
has been taken in a concert.
> Main cover line
> Other cover lines
7. The plain white text for this magazine shows that there isn’t any fancy
extras it’s straight to the point and teaches the reader exactly what
they want to know about guitars. The word ‘Total is written in smaller
text than ‘Guitar’ because its to emphasis that the magazine is about
guitars.
The main image is of Dave Evans, the guitarist from U2. It looks like a
picture from a concert than a picture in a professional shoot as he
isn’t looking directly at the camera. The small image in the top right is
of another artist that has a smaller article in the magazine, there is
also a small cut out looking picture of another artist underneath the
first. There is then a picture of a red guitar body and part of the neck
coming off the page to make the reader want to turn the front page.

>Simple title font, with a red background
> Main image is a close up of the lead
singer of Cold play, which slightly overlaps
the title.
>Positioning statement
>Price and date are underneath the title.
>Quotes from the main cover line are
printed on the cover.
>Internet page printed above the barcode
>Lists of artists
9. Chris martin is the main image, the editor and photographer must have
decided that Chris martin would be holding the name of his band Coldplay in
his mouth, so got the shot of him with his mouth open and then put the text
in his mouth.
This magazine cover for Q is very plain, there are no smaller images of other
artists featured in the magazine, There are mainly snippets of the interview
with Chris Martin printed on the cover. The only other information about other
artists are on a foot note at the bottom of the cover. There is another cover
line at the top of the magazine which informs the reader of Glastonbury.
