1. The masthead of the front of the
magazine is big and bold creating a huge
contrast with the background, The
masthead is a one letter ‘Q’ a simple
letter that’s eye catching and the main
focal point of the cover as it’s the biggest
letter on the cover and it also is covering
the main image and making the title of
the magazine the main focal point.
With the main article relating to the
main image it also shows the use of the
readers knowledge as the ‘3 words’ is
the name of one of the artists singles
showing a relation from the magazine
to the readers encouraging them to
buy the magazine.
The cover lines on the front all have the
same typography and the same style and
colour to make the cover look professional.
The positioning of the cover lines also show
us that the most important and the more
interesting articles are at the top of the
magazine as the articles are bigger and look
differently to the right third of the
magazine.
The masthead also tells us about the
magazine your supposed to read, as the
letter Q isn’t a used letter, this implies that
the magazine is different, unique and not
like other magazines.
The house style on the magazine is using
powerful colours such as red grey and
black these colours are strong and bold
and can catch the audiences eye.

2. The mast head has been presented at the top
of the magazine, also with the colours fitted
into the lettering it makes the title stand out
more and becomes a focal point making the
mast head different and unique making it
stand out from other magazines.
The artists name in large lettering doesn’t cover
the main image of beyonces face, with the
lettering being In a different font from the articles
it makes the headline stand out more than others
and will make the readers know the main focus on
what’s inside the magazine.
With the name of a popular venue and with a
sell-out star like beyonces by advertising her
latest performance so fans can get to see
what the performance was like and
information about her and what she has
done.
The main image on the front cover is a medium
close up of a well-known popular star who would be
recognized by anyone with the star looking directly
at you draws the reader into the the magazine and
as the image has been spread over the whole page
it puts a different perspective on the magazine. The
fact that there is no other images on the front it
would mean that the magazine is mainly based on
the star and the lead articles and headline are all
about her.
The cover lines have been
positioned on the left of the
cover to show the main image
more detailed show that it looks
better than the hand getting
covered up. The house style of
the magazine looks as if the
articles and main features are all
in white making a contrast on
the colours used for beyonce
with the different types of fonts
used it puts a different effect on
each other articles showing the
separate articles.

summer and holidays. This appeals to the
target audience and makes the readers
want to find out more about what's going
on as the main image is sort of mysterious.
