Magazine research

- 3. Existing Product Main Motif takes priority over everything else, even the magazine’s title Grey background sets a grittier theme for the motif of the magazine, whilst simultaneously bringing out the already popping red. This draws the reader’s eyes to these segments. Motif instantly gives an impression of what type of magazine it is and what style of art you can expect to see within it Simple title says what the magazine is without any confusion

- 8. Research Analysis • What common features do the researched products have? • All the covers utilise red frequently, suggesting it is a universally enticing colour. A main motif dominates the cover for each magazine, showing that it is the most eye-catching part, even ahead of the magazine name. • What aspects of the research will you include within your on work? – I will also use red for my magazine alongside an accompanying colour. I will use a main motif that is on top of a calming background to make it stand out as well as to give a feeling of serenity. Like the car magazine and music magazines, I will use a celebrity to entice people to read the magazine. Furthermore, I will make sure to add short text describing what to expect from the magazine as all three of my researched examples do.
