Measures of Central Tendency: Mean, Median and Mode
Front Cover Analysis
1. MASTHEAD – The masthead is bold and really stands
out. The masthead is hidden behind the main image
and this is when you know that it is a well-known
magazine because people recognize the name and
don’t need to see all of the letters. Also it is cracked to
give that rock effect.
COVERLINES – The cover lines on this magazine front
cover are yellow and black etc. This makes it stand out
as one of the darkest colours is on one of the brightest,
this catches the audience’s eye.
MAIN IMAGE – The main image on this magazine cover
is an image of Biffy Clyro looking straight down the
camera lens. By him looking down the camera lens it
creates a personal relationship with the audience. By
using Biffy Clyro in the main image it suggests that he
will be in the main story of the magazine and the main
article will be about him.
BARCODE – A barcode is used to check the model and
the price of the magazine
MASTHEAD – The masthead is very bold and stands
out a lot! By making the font that big it stands out as
one of the biggest things on the page.

cover are yellow and black which stand out a lot
because they are on a white background.

creates a personal relationship with the audience.

cover.

but it looks very professional and it stands out. By
keeping the maximum of 3 colours it makes it look very
clean.
