1. Use
I have used a similar font
for the masthead but
mine is a bit more straight
and upright.
The strap lines are similar as they
have the same colour box and I
have put the different topics in an
alternative colour.
I have used similar
colour schemes for the
front cover. I have used
the light blue and pink.
I have used two of the same
artists and bands because
they are widely known for pop
music
I have but my text
in coloured
rectangles
2. Use
I used the masthead on the
contents page so that people
can distinguish that it is from
the same magazine.
I have used a blue square in the
background the same as the one
in we heart pop.
I have added an editors note to inform
the readers what was is in the magazine.
On my contents there is a main
image which is the biggest image
which will draw the attention for the
story.
3. Use
I used a larger image and then a
smaller image on the other side
the same the we heart pop
magazine.
I put my text into more than one
column.
I have took quotes from the text and
put them in a bigger font to make them
stand out.
The text for the mast head is
similar as it is all capital letters
4. Develop
I used a subheading offering
advice but it is offering
different advice
I put the strap lines in different
places on the magazine
I still have a main image like the
front cover of we heart pop but
mine is a smaller image
I used subheadings but I did
not put boxes around the
subheadings.
5. Develop
Both have stated how often
they are published but
mine is weekly and theirs is
monthly
Both feature an editors note but
mine has a photo of the editor
and mine is in a box where as
theirs is blended in with the
background.
Both have main images but mine is
cut out rather than in a box like
theirs
I have put my contents page in a long
rectangle and opaque box where as the
we heart pop magazine is just a little
box at the bottom.
6. Develop
The model has been dressed
in different clothes on theirs
where as my model is in the
same outfit
The masthead is just on the
background but on we heart pop
their masthead is in a banner.
I referred to the subject as “she”
whereas they actually put some of the
subjects name in the masthead
embedded into a word play.
They have put a pull out quote into a
speech bubble whereas I have just pulled
mine out.
7. Challenge
I have challenged where they
put their masthead. I put mine
to be the first thing they see.
I have also challenged where to
put a product placement. I have
put mine as the second that they
will look at.
My main headline starts from the left
which is where people naturally start
reading from. It is also straight which
may show that it is aimed at a younger
audience.
I have challenged putting lots of photos
on the front of my magazine. The one
on the right has lots all clumped
together.
8. Challenge
I challenged having all of my
photos with a background in.
I have put a mixture of cut
outs and images with a
background.
I have put the contents list into two
different sections. I have split it into
the content which will be in every
week and content which will only
be in the one edition
I have used a different way of introducing
the contents page. I have also put the
leading statement into a box unlike the one
on the right.
I have used an image of myself (the
editor) under the editors not whereas
the we heart pop hasn’t. This will help
create more of a personal relationship
with the reader
9. Challenge
I have put my page numbers
in as my audience is young so
would help them whereas we
heart pop haven’t put any
page numbers to help.
In the we heart pop magazine they
use a leading sentence but i have just
opened my story with a paragraph
because if they were reading it they
would probably already know what
the story is about because it is aimed
at the subjects fans.
I challenged leaving a bit of white space
so it didn’t look over crowded but on
the other magazine it is filled with a
photo.
I also challenged making my story
longer than the we heart pop
magazine, so that the reader can get
more information but without it being
too long.
