The document discusses four magazine covers and contents pages. For the first cover, the reviewer likes the simple black, white and pink color scheme and that Nicki Minaj has a powerful gaze that draws the viewer in. However, they dislike that the picture is black and white rather than showing Minaj's colorful personality. For the first contents page, the reviewer likes that Minaj is centered and her name highlighted, which focuses on her as the topic. There is nothing disliked.

1. I like this magazine front cover because it’s
simple, but effective, the main colour scheme
is black, white and pink. The model on the
cover is Nicki Minaj, she is in the middle of the
cover and has a powerful gaze, this is
symbolising that she is luring you in with her
eyes like she is in control. One of the things I
don’t like about this magazine cover is that
the picture is black and white; nicki Minaj is a
colourful character and she could be in
colour/dressed more colourful to portray her
personality.
What I like about this contents
page is that the model nicki Minaj
is in the middle of the page, this
gives the reader the idea that it’s
about her and her music and
nothing else, her name is also in
bold and in pink and that’s her
iconic colour so it works well with
the article. The questions that she
is asked is in bold and the answer
is in normal writing and that gives
a good visual image. The
background also works well
because it’s a different shade of
pink and blends well. There is
nothing I don’t like about this
contents page.

2. What I like about this magazine cover is that it’s
simple; the main colours are blue, white and
red. The model on the front is wearing quiet
skimpy clothes and in a ‘sexy’ pose, this works
well because the magazine is about her and
what she does in her life and her music career.
What I don’t like about the magazine is the
layout; it is not very eye catching and doesn’t
grab your attention. The cover story doesn’t
stand out because all the other writing is quiet
large so you cannot tell.
What I like about this contents page is the
layout, it is divided into ‘features’ and
‘regulars’ and it works quiet well because
you will know the regular things that you
get in every edition and the one offs. What
I also like is the colour scheme, the black,
grey and white contrast each other well.
The model is in an interesting shape and
that makes you pay attention and to read
more.

3. I like this magazine cover because it has a
simple colour scheme, so there isn’t too
much colours but it’s still effective. The
model on the front is Kanye West, he is a hip
hop artist and he is wearing glasses and has a
serious pose on his face, this is implying that
he is a serious man and just wants to get on
with his business.
The main story line is also in bold so it stands
out so as soon as you see this cover you
know it is about Kanye west. What I dislike
about this front cover is that the other
stories are in bold and are small so it is hard
to read and it is too close together.
I like this contents page because it’s set
out nicely, the ‘T’ in contents has the
issue number on the bottom of it and
that looks good, and is very creative. I
like that it has the Regulars and the
Features colour coded and the cover
story is written in a red circle with the
page number that makes it stand out.
What I don’t like about the contents
page is that there are too many things
happening; there is too much
information that could be put on the
other pages and not the contents one.
