1. Social media sites where they can find
information and updates on ‘Slam’ on places
like Facebook.
This will be the space for the main image on the
page.
The main title is the biggest text on the page so
it stands out automatically. I’ve put it in the
same font as the masthead on the front cover
because its very bold and fits in with the genre
and attracts the target audience. I have placed
it in a circle so it separates it from the rest of
the page. Then, this will have a different
background colour so it draws attention to it
even more.
Any artist/band names that are included in the
titles for the page numbers I have put in a
different colour to the rest of the text and in
capital letters so this stands out to the reader.
This catches the target audiences' eye more
because they’re popular names in the rock
genre so they’ll be familiar with them.
I have kept the same colour scheme as the one
on the front cover because this makes the
magazine look professional and neat. Also, they
are masculine colours and I’ve made them fit in
with the genre and attract the target audience
being mostly males. This wouldn’t have the
same effect if I used more bright colours such as
pink and purple which are more girly colours.
The page numbers next to each title are in a
bright colour so they just stand out and look
more bold. They’re an indication for the reader
to know which article is on which page. By
making them bold and stand out, it is clear for
the reader to do this and makes it easier for
them.
These are the headers for certain categories
that the articles fit into. This makes it easier for
the reader to find what kind of article they
would want to read about. For example, if they
wanted to look at competitions, they would
look under the ‘competitions’ header and find
the page they want. I have placed it in a box
which sections it off from the rest of the page
and put the background as a bright colour
which really catches the readers eye.
