The front cover of Q magazine uses various design elements to attract readers. These include a large, bold masthead in red and white at the top left to catch the eye. The main image is a close-up of singer Adele, facing the camera at an angle rather than straight on. The largest headline promotes an article about Adele to draw in her fans. Additional coverlines along the right edge advertise interior articles and are accompanied by small images. Text at the top in a contrasting font promises "amazing" posters inside. The barcode is at the bottom left so the price does not deter readers before they see what is advertised inside.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

Adele fornt cover evaluation
- 1. Billboard I have also begun to look at Billboard which is a multi genre music magazine. I have chose this because i don’t really listen to pacific genre of music so i decided this would be the best magazine for my back up research. The skyline for this magazine isn’t as strong as others as it is not well seen because it just looks like it has been squashed into a spare space in the header of the magazine. The masthead is well seen as it is the eye catching colours to stand out against the background, the black also makes the masthead stand out a lot more. Just by looking at the magazine you can see that it is well known as the main photograph is over the masthead. The main line for this issue is well seen as it is against the dark black/grey coat that Adele is wearing. It clearly states which artist is the main selling point of the month’s issue and a main, interesting fact about the artist. It also says ‘Now She’s Eyeing the U.S.A’ and in the photograph she is hiding most of her face but the eyes so it looks like she is actually eye the reader up so this is a good type of representation and linking the selling points of the magazine. The solo artist Adele is the main selling point for this magazine as the photograph is the full page of the front cover to attract Adele fans to the magazine. She isn’t well noticed at first as she is cover with a coat and holding it to her face, this makes you want to look closer to the magazine and find out more about the artist on the front cover. Direct mode of address is also used Charlotte Hughes Media
- 2. Billboard as she is like glaring at the reader but in a sexual way to invited you to the magazine. The magazine layout has well pin pointed the main selling stories as they have been highlighted in red which is a colour to represent dangerous so it makes you more attracted and interested in the magazine. I don’t think that the magazine has well laid out this issue as there is a lot of space around the bottom of the page. The Route of Eye has been created well as your eye is first drawn to the long curly hair and across to Adele’s eyes and down her hand to her coat and down to the main selling point. This is a strong route of eye as it makes the reader look at the main selling point of the issue and around the magazine. Overall this issue is ok. I would say they could have done the lay out better by spreading the writing around Adele instead of bundling all the cover stories at the top of the page. But the main focus (Adele) is a good eye focus for attracting readers and inviting them to the magazine. Charlotte Hughes Media
