Evaluation Part 7

These InDesign tools helped enhance the design and visual appeal of my magazine.

The document analyzes and compares the covers of two music magazines - Kerrang and NME. Kerrang targets 15-25 year old males and focuses on rock and heavy metal music. Its cover uses bold colors like black, red, and yellow that represent danger and rebellion fitting its genre. NME targets 16-35 year olds of both genders and focuses on indie/alternative music. Its cover has softer pink and white colors and presents information in a more traditional column format compared to Kerrang's use of images.

The design choices were meant to both anchor the audience with familiar elements while also adding differences to disorient them initially.
