2. Large and bold icon, easy brand
recognition which will grab the attention
of people. Bold red contrasts well with
the very pale colour scheme of the
magazine.
Large image of Adele, easily
recognisable, main part of the
magazine cover.
Important issue, gold is regal, makes it
important. Compliments the look
Adele is going with well.
Less important stories, still
continue with ‘Q’ layout which
makes it stand out, first names
are bigger than the rest showing
they are important enough to be
recognised by their first name
alone.
Quote from the main focus of the
magazine, relevant.
Close of up artists’ face, very
recognisable.
All the text is wrapped
around Adele’s face.
Her name is in a much bigger
and bolder font than the rest
of the writing. It stands out
against her hair.
3. Big black and white contrasting
writing, custom font makes it easily
recognisable and gives it brand
awareness.
Quote from main focus again, might not
be as popular or as well known as
someone like Adele so their name stands
out a lot more and their image seems a
lot less imposing.
Lots of different fonts used on the cover.
Free material related to the
main focus of the magazine.
Very packed cover, not much space is
wasted, lots of different images and
different font styles.
Medium-close up of the band,
although there is writing on
their bodies, there is none
present on their face.
4. Big, bold and white writing makes it stand out
against the red background, makes it easily
identifiable .
Main feature as the centrepiece,
take up the most room on the
front cover. Shows their
importance.
All of the text is pushed
to the side of The White
Stripes, not overlapping
them at all.
Information that would be important to fans of the
band, personal life etc.
Long shot of the
band, sitting down in a chair
compresses it though.
Free collector posters, something that would interest
people. ‘Free’ is emphasised and in a much bolder
font. Draws the eye’s attention.
Very simple colours used, striking house style.
