as it is only small bits of information and they want it to appeal to

fun an interesting.

images than it does
writing. This makes the
reader interested in what is
going on in the magazine.
The images are the pages
that the reader are more
likely to turn to. They want
the reader to do this as
they the main stories in the

older target audience. They make the magazine look smart and grown up
but they also give the magazine a old look,

some are not but these
looks relaxed and fun. We
get to see images of the
them recording in a studio
which is normal in this
genre of music magazine.
With the images been
taken in the studio it
makes us feel like we are
part of them making the
CD and have been given
privet access to it that no
one else can have. Other
images have been used of
different places which
breaks the page up and Writing style – The article is about their life as a band and their new

interesting. talking. It seems a bit more privet and serious as we don’t know what they
have asked the band we just get quotes.

are in a recording studio. With the colours of the images and what they are wearing makes the red
stand out on the page.

picture to text the ratio is
probably about 60 – 40.
The large images get the
readers attention, so they
are more likely to stop
and read the page. As
there is more images on
the page it breaks the
writing up so it makes the
reader think that there
isn’t as much text to read,
therefore they are more
likely to read the article.
There doesn’t seem like a
lot of text but it is
informative and well
written.
Fonts – The fonts are the same as the one they have used on the contents
page, this creates a magazine identity. They make the magazine look
formal which fits in with the magazines overall look to make it appeal to
their audience.
