The masthead on Q magazine has always been
the same and is well known, its white font on a
red background, the red emphasises the white
font and makes it stand out more to the
audience. The colour Red is symbolic of many
things, love, passion, danger, blood, it’s a very
widely used colour as it can mean many things.
The main image is of a well know British singer Lily
Allen, her pose is very seductive and she is
wearing nothing on her top half and is covered
by only her arm, her finger is playfully near her
mouth this would appeal to the male audience
of Q magazine. The target audience would be
between 18-30 male and female, but mainly a
male audience. The font is mainly sans-serif with
a little serif font, this creates sophistication and
reflects the fact it’s more for adults not
teenagers. They have used the left and the right
side of the page which is going against code
and conventions of a normal magazine this
could be because they like to be individual. The
different use of font is very eye catching. They
use bold, italics and normal throughout and
change it regularly this gives it some playfulness.
Spin magazine’s masthead is very similar to
Q’s with the red background and white
font again its one of the most eye
catching mastheads. The main image is of
a young artist named ‘M.I.A’ she’s pulling a
rebellious and youthful pose that cant be
taken to seriously, the two tone colour on
her lips and funky coloured jacket makes
the simple cover more interesting and
adds to her edgy pose. They have mainly
used the left hand side with only a little bit
of writing on the right but the most
important things on the right. The main
image has a lot of light on her, this lightens
and makes the cover very bright, al ot of
her accessories reflect light, the studs on
her hat and her necklace this makes them
all very shiny. The target audience would
be between 16-25. The rebelliousness of
M.I.A is repeated in the writing ‘with a rebel
yell’.
The cover of NME magazine is never one to
be taken seriously this is shown by the larger
than life Beth Ditto who is not the usual type
of person you see naked on a cover and
also with the cover line ‘kiss my ass’. Her
pose is almost become comical instead of
seductive, the impression you get is that she
doesn’t care what you think, she seems
rebellious and wild. NME are giving away
free posters this is advertised on the front
cover this will entice people to buy the
magazine as everybody likes getting
something for free. The colours are very
vibrant and almost to much, the bright
canary yellow and blood red, and the small
use of black and white. The masthead is a
black background with white outline
around red, this is very original and eye
catching.
