1. “VIBE” Clear
masthead easy to
read.
Main image: centrally
framed, direct mode of
address, serious facial
expression, arms crossed
connoting anger and
discontent, possibly
attracting the audience to
buy the magazine.
Cover lines on 2
sides instead of
one. This was
clearly done to
cover the main
cover photo as
little as possible.
Main cover story
clearly indicated
Rectangular instead
of circular puff. Used
to draw attention of
potential buyers.
Banner to attract
buyers.
2. Single big image,
unconventional for a
contents page as this
is usually done on a
front cover and is a
lot different from the
image on the from
front cover.
All the information for
the contents page has
all been put in a single
column and is on the
right side of the page
and is in a clear font
and colour, however
for some the font size
is too small and so a
bit hard to read.
“VIBE” logo.
Facial expression is
again connoting
anger and
discontent. His
hands are also
connoting
discontent.
Suit and tie a lot
different to the vest
and arms folded and
tattoos showing.
3. Essential: panic / crisis
associated so people will
think something they
need and/or is important
so they will want to buy
it.
Big puff to draw you in.
Again ‘must-hear’ makes
the magazine seem very
important.
Masthead- Big print
very clear and easy
to read.
Cover lines on 2 sides
instead of one. This was
clearly done to cover the
main cover photo as little
as possible.
Centrally framed,
indirect mode of
address.
The typography is very
clear and the white
colour makes it stand out
from the darker
background
Barcode is horizontal instead of
vertical, neither is considered
more conventional than the
Banner to attract you to
buy the magazine.
Cover line made
bigger to attract
people to buy
4. Big image to attract
readers with a
background you
would associate the
celebrity with. “I’m
bringing ginger
back!” statement
from the celebrity
used to make him
sound tough and to
get the audiences
attention.
Three column
system, two big
columns (left
and right) one
little column.
The two bigger
columns are the
main body of the
page with all of
the main text of
the story that
the reader will
want to read.
The smaller
column only has
some bonus
information.
“HOTLIST” attracts
readers attention.
