2. Develop
Compared to the magazine on the
right- the sticker is positioned in a
different way- to make it stand out
as the sticker on the right
magazine is placed small on the
Masthead so isn’t very visible to
the readers.
Masthead both behind the
main image but placed in a
different position.
The main image used on my magazine and the one on
the right have similar postures with similar looking
clothes that are seen to be casual with the theme of
black, red and white especially for the male gender
Masthead and cover text follow
the theme of orange and white.
Barcode placed on the side of a magazine.
3. Challenge
I used the “VIBE” magazine
to inspire me on my
magazine, I looked at 3
“VIBE” magazines and
looked at their background
colours and then decided
on the colour of grey after
comparing them together,
to make my magazine look
unique.
Instead of having
the name of the
person in the main
image at the top left
of the magazine, I
placed it on the
bottom left.
The sticker on my magazine is
coloured in yellow and is barely used
on any of the “VIBE” magazines.
4. Use
Use of lines
Image on the
right hand
side.
Similar use of font for
the title “CONTENTS”.
5. Develop
Page numbers
are bigger and
bold compared
to the billboard
magazine
The use of lines
have been
developed as in
the billboard
there’s vertical as
well as horizontal
lines but my
magazine only
involves horizontal
lines
The title “Contents” is one sided
on the “billboard” magazine
whereas on my magazine I
decided that the title should
have a Centre alignment and
more bold.
6. Challenge
The image used challenges the
image used on the image on the
“billboard: magazine as there’s a
difference in the levels in terms of
the person who’s posing.
The use of the lines are
challenged in terms of
how thick they are in
comparison to the
billboard magazine. On
my magazine the lines
used are quite thin, this
is because I was limited
on space.
7. Use
Used the idea of a single image on
the left hand side of the page.
Similar clothing and
accessories.
8. Develop
The images differ in terms of the
angles of the shot as for the
double page spread on the right
hand side has a close up of a
celebrity whereas my magazine
has a medium close up.
As you can see from the double page
spread on the right hand side across the
text is a watermark, I didn't’t want to to
use a watermark because it would look
too similar.
9. Challenge
I have challenged the ways in
which the columns are organized
as you can see that the magazine
on the left has wider columns
compared to mine.
The celebrities face isn’t revealed
unlike mine where although the
person is wearing glasses you can
see more of the face and
therefore will catch my readers
eye as there’s the use of direct
form of address.
