CONTENTSPAGEANALYSIS [MICHAELLAMANIAGO]
- The house style uses black anda darker shade ofred; this creates a very
sombre effect for the reader when combined with the black andwhite
editing, which fits with the quote andstory at the bottom ofthe page because
it’s dealing with the loss ofa lovedone. This creates a feeling ofseriousness
forthe magazine because the story of CorinneBailey Rae andthe death of
her husband helps the reader tounderstand that they need to take the
magazine alittle more seriously.
There is presence ofthe logo andpage number at the bottom,
but it’s small so the emphasis is moreon the articles.
- The mode ofaddress is quite informal despite the darker mood it sets
because they use wordssuch as ‘bloomin’ and use rhetorical questions that
make it seem more conversational ratherthan the magazine talking AT the
reader.
- The use of pulled quotes allows for the reader’s attention tobe taken
because it provides an insight intowhat the article may be about, which may
help them to see whether they want toread that article ornot.
However, the use ofblack on the quote below (the blue circle) makes it
difficult to read because it blends intothe blurredbackground.
- The font used is sans Serif, which further makes the magazine seem more
friendly as it looks more modern instead oftraditional, which wouldmake
the magazine seem toointimidating . The only time Serif is used is on the
pulled quote, the COVERSTORY, andthe description on the Corinne Bailey
Rae article, which prioritises on the moresombre topics, while the COVER
STORY article heading being in Serif gives the cover story moreimportance
above the others.
CONTENTSPAGEANALYSIS [MICHAELLAMANIAGO]
The model is looking directly at the camera but one eye is hidden
through her hair,which creates an airof mystery aroundher
because eyes areperceived tobe the windows ofthe soul, andso
tohave one eye hidden may imply that she is notrevealing
everything about her. The model is CorinneBailey Rae, the artist
whohas an article about her dealing with the loss ofher
husband, soto haveher posed in this way despite her givingan
interview about asensitive subject connotes toher still keeping
something private.
The photo is edited so that she is the main focus ofthe magazine:
the background is blurred, andsothe attention is all on her.
Regardless of this,the model’s features have not been sharpened
tothe point where it is obvious, which suggests that she is
vulnerable because her face is softer, andthere is some light on
her face instead ofher being hidden under shadows.
This can be seen as a medium-close up because she is still shot
from justbelow the neck, andthus allows for the reader tofocus
on her stern facial expression, because her gaze is fixed directly
on the camera, which wouldhelp the reader toconnect with her
because it is as if she is looking directly at them as she reveals her
truefeelings in the article.
The lack ofobvious makeup, casual clothes andher hair being
let down further helps toconjure a picture of vulnerability
because she isn’t hiding herself under makeup orfancy
clothes that may divert the attention from her facial
expression. Because of this,it helps the reader toconnect
with her even more as she is choosing to show her feelings in
the article about a heavy topic, andthus makes the reader
feel like she isn’t lyingabout how she feels inside.
The model takes up almost half of the page, and there’s a lot
ofempty spaces where there is notext, which makes her
seem more important because the text sizes aresmaller and
she is placed in the verymiddle ofthe page.
