a punch of very vibrant colours. The magazine main image is very simple
yet deep with many hidden meanings.
5. Masthead
Masthead is the title of the the magazine that is the most prominent text which is written in
dark or funky colours to make them more eye catching. It is usually written in simple font to
make it look more appealing and bold on white background. The masthead the same in every
magazine issue. Usually the master heads are half covered.with the main image because the
editor might think that he doesn't need to show the full name of the.magazine because it is

Cover line usually gives a hint about the
articles in the magazine. It is written in bold
and in a different colour so that it appeals
the reader as soon as he looks at the
magazine cover. After analysing the three
magazine cover pages I have chosen I’ve
noticed that the cover lines are written to
create a mystery in the readers head for e.g
in the first cover line it says 7 pieces you
need and don’t own this caption will make
the reader curious and want to find out that
what are those 7 new trendy pieces that I
don’t own. Similarly the second cover line
says’ your ultimate sexy hair guide which will
instantly tell the reader that this magazine
might contain an article with hair tip to get
sexy hair.

magazines main image the
