1. 12573002428875There is a yellow masthead, however rather than contain the usual information of the name, price and date of the magazine, it splashes information to grab the readers attention of current musical news. The title of the magazine ‘NME’ an abbreviation of ‘new musical express’. Although the whole magazine is busy and pulls you in straight away will all the contents displayed, the name straight away catches your attention, with a bright block red and black outline standing out against any background.<br />The masthead, is the very first thing that catches your eye amongst all the other things that do. The title of the magazine ‘NME’ an abbreviation of ‘New Musical Express’, pulls you in straight away with a bright block red fill colour, and a black outline, making it stand out against any background used for the magazine.<br />A banner is used along both the top and the bottom of the magazine. Along the top, a bright yellow is used which is yet another thing that catches your eye immediately on the magazine against the black, bold font. The banner at the top of the magazine, is relating to the current music news that people would want to hear about. The background colour of the top banner matches the colour of the leading article, this then also stands out against the background and draws attention to the features of the magazine. The banner at the bottom of the page, has a black background and therefore doesn’t stand out as much against the dark background. It is also a lot smaller which suggests that this article is of less importance to the other articles featured on the cover. The main feature of this article of the magazine it’s obviously about ‘the wombats’, their image is used as the magazine background for this issue, and the yellow colour is used again, to make it look much brighter and stand out even more. It is also the biggest piece of text on the page, other than the masthead so it immediately draws our attention and we are aware that this is the main story followed through. Reverse-out text is used on the titles of the other articles, situated around the headline, the white and blue does not stand out as much as the yellow, which tells us it is not as important, these colours are also used in the title of the articles featured around the edges.
