1. The letter “V” is a form of iconography and it
represents the magazines brand
The artist is topless so that his
tattoos can be shown in order to
indicate to the audience that a
huge characteristic of a hip hop
artist is tattos.This conforms to the
stereotype
The title “content” is
written on different levels
to show that the
magazine is unique. The
use of white in the text is
in contrast to the
background colors.
This will make the title
stand out as the brighter
colour is more attractive.
The word “feature” is written
in serif writing in order for the
title to stand out so that the
readers can follow.
The subheadings are in bold so
that the readers can follow and it
makes it more readable. This will
make it easier for the readers
and they wont get annoyed with
the information.
The background colors is dark
red and it is in low key lightin
which makes the model stand
out as all the spotlight is on
him because the exposure of
lighting is higher than the
background. Also, the
background colour connotes
to danger as the model seem
to be a caution because he
has tattoos and gold heavy
chains around his neck.
There is an issue number and a “vibe” logo at
the top right corner, it makes the readers aware
of the brand

3. There isn’t much blank spaces which
makes the article look like it is full of
interesting stories and gossip.
A mid body shot of the artist have been used as
a main imagine, it is almost placed at the centre
of the page. Her make up matches with the
colour scheme “pink” as she is wearing pink
lipstick which makes the double spread page
very powerful in my opinion because everything
links together and makes it look very eye
catching as the costume and colour theme is
matching.
There is a pulled quote
from the interview which
will allow the reader to
find interest in the
article. The pulled quote
highlights the most
important part of the
article which attracts the
readers attention.
The text is split into section
across the page discussing
different topics. This type of
style is for younger targeted
audience as it is easy to
read. In addition, the colour
theme is pink which will
attract teenage girls.
Nicki's zebra print
costume and the
background of the page is
very contrasting which
makes it very effective
because of the colours
and patterns
The sub headings is in bold black
font and each column is number is
pink numbers. This makes it more
readable as the readers are able to
follow the article because they are
able to read it in different sections
A page number and the name
of the magazine is included
at the left bottom corner.
Drop Capital is used, the letter “W
shows s to the reader that it is an article
as a drop capital is a feature of a article.
Also, the drop capital will show to the
reader where to start reading.
The masthead is “The Gospel
according to Nicki Minaj” The
word"Gospel” indicates to the
audience that she is presented
as God like. This could be
interpreted as she is seen as a
goddess in the genre of Hip-
Hop.Also,the front of the title
is big and bold which suggest
to the audience that the whole
double spread page is about
her as the title is bigger than
the other titles. “Nicki Minaj”
is written in bright pink which
implies femininity as the
colour pink is stereotypically
associated with women. The
big vibrant title fits in with her
fun personality.

4. The main imagine of Beyoncé is
on the right side of the double
spread page, the imagine takes
up the whole page. This will
make the audience realise that
the article is all about the
artist.Beyonces make up, hair
and costume stands out as it
reflect back to the masthead it
highlights the word “fierce”.
The use of metal in her costume
is a way to communicate to the
audience that she is powerful
and strong.Also, the costume is
“creative” because you don’t
see women wearing metal
everyday. Beyoncé is looking
directly at the camera which
makes the imagine and
audience connect because it is
directly addressed to the
audience.
The main headline is on the left hand side and it is in bold white font.
The font represent the words in a way as the word “fiercely” is very
big and bold whereas, “creative” is not in bold. This means that the
word “fiercely ” will stand out more and attracts the audience. Also, it
could communicate that “fiercely” describes Beyoncé more that the
word “creative” .
The caption “women of the year” is at the top
right corner. This indicates to the audience who
the article Is about. The name of the artist
“Beyoncé” is not mention which means that she
is very popular in her genre of music that the
magazine does not need to mention her name
because the audience already know who she Is.
There are two columns at the left hand side
of the double spread page. It is located at
the left hand side because, the purpose of
this double spread page is for the audience
to see the picture of Beyoncé first rather
than the writing when they first turn the
page as it will attract readers
By-line is used to tell he
reader who wrote the
article.
There are no bold
subheads therefore,
the readers will
assume that the
article is only about
one topic.
The background of the
magazine is purple which is
a colour that is associate
with female however, the
background of the main
imagine is grey.
