1. Magazine Analysis

2. Date and Price- €4.99,it was
hard to see becoause the
magazine isn’t cheap and that
isn’t so positive. So this is a
higher class magazine
Masthead: They use the same
logo on all of their magazines
red and white in left corner.
This is a constant on Q
magazine.
Barcode: every magazine
must have a barcod so you
can buy the magazine.
Main image: Is a long sho,
beause you can see all of the
persons. There is one man in the
front, thst maybe is more about
in the magazine.
Buzz word: words like ”exclusive
” is used to draw attention to
readers. Here i think they get free
cd when you buy the magzine.
That isa very good idea to get
people to bu the magazine.Sub Heading: that not
quite that but its the
first thing I saw, that is
becuseo of it’s so big,
but It don’t tell anything
about that Q magazine
Layout: all the text is shaped
on the side of the
image.almost all the text is
places on the people but tle
masthead and sub image is
behind.
Sub image: there is a big
interview when there is a image
of the artist interview with
famous people.
Plug: there are numbers and
word, so you know whats inn the
magazine without opening it.

3. Date: since it is one
year old, it not up to
date. But that doesn’t
matter because it’s
about old artists.
This page is in the
beginning of the
magazine and you can
see which page the artist
are on.
Header: is in bold
font so its easy to
see which artists
that are in the
magazine.
Review: has a black
frame around so it
separate from the rest of
the page and it’s easy to
find. Because review is
something people is
very interested in, and
maybe only wants to
read that.
Layout: is very clean and on
line, and to brake that rythm,
they have used round bobbles
in strong colours with the page
number. So it makes it more
readable and easy to find.
Each page/artist is separated
lack thin lines, so even if you
don’t know who everybody is,
you can see that the first image
belongs to page 12.
Image: it is image of all the artist
represented to give more information
about who they are. I think Noel Gallagher
is more covered than the others in the
magazine, since his image is much bigger.
More people are interested in him.
Bottom line: is separate
from the rest of the page
with a black line which
continue on the rest of the
page.
Logo: is there to show
which magazine this
contents page belongs to
They have used it in the
masthead.

4. Title: work as a
introduction “his
name is Prince…
and”. Is in bold
white and to make
more suitable for
the image, there is
a pink pattern on
the text. That
makes it more soft
and calm.
Image: it’s a photo of Prince on stage,
and it fills 2/3 of the pages. To use a
big photo makes the audience to look
quick trough and can see the page.
Puff: this means that it
extra about Prince. I
think there is more than
just this page.
Layout: is very clean with image on
left and text on right. And they have
used the preamble to cut that
straight line trough the page.
Preamble: Is in bold and
bigger size than the other
text to easy see what the
article is about.
Colours: They have
used purple and pink
so there must be
more woman that
reads it than men.
Text : is small and
clean. I think this
text is presented in
a way that people
who is like Prince or
want to know more
read, so the
generation who
knew about prince
or very music
interested people.
Other people read
the bigger text ,title
and look at images.
You get a lot of
information just
looking at that too.

5. Date and price: it’s from
Nov 2015 so it’s new and it
costs €4.99. so it’s a bit
expensive probably more
geared towards working
people or more affluent
students.
Splash image: is a group image
of the beatles in black and white
which I feel reflects the era the
Beatles came from.
Puff: Free cd is a good
thing so thats why they
use eyecatching colours
like red and yellow and
with a font that draws
attention.
Masthead: the MOJO
logo in white, so it blends
in with the rest of cover.
Its behind the main
image. So it looks like it
belongs there.
Barcode: have to be there,
so it’s not to big so it
disturbe but easy to find.
And placed down in the
corner where the eye look
last.
splash feature: It’s easy to
see that this is a magzine
where a big part is about the
beatles. So it’s more
interesting to the people
that maybe grew up with the
Beatles.
Gifts: In almost all the MOJO
magazines there a cd that you
get when you buy the
magazine. This seems to be a
trademark and may account
for the higher price.
Colours: so as not to do
the magazine in just black
and white and boring they
have used strong colours
like red and yellow. On sub
headings which draws your
eyes to it.
Sub image: to make it not to
look as a The Beatles
magazine only about the
Beatles they have used
another image, with warm
colours and another person.

6. Logo: to recognise the
magazine on the content page
they have mojo’s masthead
with same font as the rest of
the page.
Image: Is a man which most
likely is on one of the pages
inside the magazine.
Because the image have an
unusual angle, it doesn’t
make it boring. Even if he Is
just standing there.
Bottom line: even if it’s separated
from the rest of the page it still the
same colours and font. The quote
look more handwritten than the
rest of the page, which
communicate more as a quote.
Colours: yellow, black and
red. They have used yellow
to make more interesting,
but is hard to see the letters.
I would have been better
with red, like his suit.
Font: don’t know which
one, but they have used
bold and big letter on
the different subject.
Layout: One image on the right
, and the feature shaped on
the side. The features and the
cover story is the category
which is presented with a
yellow thin line and with
yellow title.
Top line: to black lines,
which make a border
with the date and
number of magazine.

7. Image: Black
and white , I
think it is a old
band that not
longer famous
but very
interested
people know
about them.
Bottom line:
square pattern to
make a style to
the pages. I think
about cars and
more man
related.
Title: bold big font, where they
separate the word “yourself” to get so
all the text is on the same line and
don’t go any longer than the text
below.
Layout: the layout is clean
and remind me of the 60’s
because of the colours,
image and font.
Colours:
There is not
used colour
on this page,
instead they
have used big
letter and
contrast to
attract the
reader.

8. Masthead: Is whit with a rough
font, which mean that Kerrang
is more cool and maybe more
interesting for teenager than
older adults.
Splash Image: is a long
shot of some artist in
Halloween costumes
which fits with the
month. And the rest
oft the magazine.
Cover line: is the band’s on the image
name and logo, with white and big
letters. The masthead is bigger, but
the magazine main focus is about
that band.
Puff: On the cover page is
usual used a lot of puff to
drag readers attention by
writing interesting lines,
bold and colourful letters.
Plug: small image of Kurt
Cobain so it’s easier to
see what the magazine is
about. And his hair is
pink so it communicate
with the rest of the
magazine and the young
readers.
Top strip: look like there
is something torn off of
the cover and the top
strip is the first page in
the magazine.
Bottom strip: Here is the same as the top strip, but smaller. Inside
there is stuff you can win. A front cover is going to tell what is
inside, but this makes it more clear what is inside, when its torn
off.
Date and price: Nov
2015,Halloween is over, they
have a Halloween inspired front
cover. The price is 2.30 pounds,
so it not that expensive, that
makes it easier for younger
people to buy it.
Colours: They have
used strong and eye
catching colours like red
and yellow a lot.

9. Colours: Black, white,
red and yellow. To not
make it boring it is
yellow on the headings
and red on the
numbers. That makes it
easier to find and for all
ages and gender.
Images: To make it more
interesting than just text,
they have brought image
from the magazine to the
content page.
Sub headings: if there is
something special you are
interested they have put all
the pages in different
categories (news, albums,
shots etc.)
Heading: to continue the style of the magazine o
Kerrang they have used a font that is that is similar
to the the logo, with dust around it. Not a
glamour's magazine, but a cheaper one.
Plug: text by editor to
the readers. They
haven't used lines to
separate like the other
magazines. They have
placed the image so
it’s easy to see that it
doesn’t belong to the
rest of the page.
Plug: help from.. Since
there isn’t any image,
they have used a grey
colour and a banner
with yellow title. Look
like a award to the
people that helped.
And the grey to make
a box.

10. Splash Image: Is
over the two pages,
and that makes
more personally and
since the
background is green
like her hair and
clothes it gives more
of her as a person,
make the image
more pure but still
tough like her.
Title: pretty white font
on the vulnerability of
the first sentence. Bold
and yellow that show
that is strong words.
“never, again” This is
word she stand by.
Sub image: even if
she is the main
artist on this
page, it’s
important to
show the band
she is in.
Note don’t
know if it’s the
same theme,
but break the
pattern on the
page, but its
white, same as
some parts of
the title.
Theme heading: This
text is on every page
to tell you which part
if the magazine you
are in.
Colours: They have used green, yellow and white. Same colours
the image have. They have used white and yellow to make the
magazine more bright, because the page is kind of dark. And the
yellow letters makes it more fun to look at. More colours is
better.
