The front cover is a full photo to do with
the main story
Similar layout of headlines and
coverlines
Always has lots of information on the
front cover, so that the audience can see
what they’ll be spending their money on
7. Does the magazine reflect the
values of its audiences
The colours used are usually quite dark, and
this can connote seriousness
Also it can show a rebellious attitude (just
from using the music as a stereotype)
It keeps up to date with new and upcoming
artists
